Avon - Avon is the name of a famous chalkstream in south of England, the river where Frank Sawyer worked and developed the even more famous Pheasant tail Nymph.
The new Avon rods from A.Jensen is based on knowledge from earlier top selling rod series mixed with the knowledge from very skillefull trout and grayling anglers from north and south of Europe. And the result is a striking new series of top performing rods for the serious dryfly and nymph fisherman.
We have used the new highest density carbon and IM8 Nano material combined with the best fitting available, we have designed a super slim and light weight rod. The Avon rod is extremely delicate and sensitive, but at the same time surprices you, as it has a lot of power, if a bigger fish turns up, or you should need to do distance casting. The blank is of course build with AHT (Advanced helical Taper) and SBD (Slim Blank Design), as most of our top series, at it ensures a fast rod action and a phenomenal low weight.
The rods looks very nice with it's deep olive colored blank, with olive thread and a slim gold trim around the logo and the shooting guide. Shooting guides is American Tackles Titanium guide and snakes are the best obtainable quality super hard Chrome double leg models. Handle and cork part of the reel seat is of highest obtainable quality AAAA Portuguese cork, and the reelseat of aircraft grade aluminium.
