The Beulah Opal 8wt saltwater fly rod is light, responsive and pin point accurate. The fast action blank flex’s throughout the rod, and tracks beautifully for quick, delicate and accurate presentation. This fly rod is a true balanced 8wt not a 9 wt in 8wt clothing, so there is no need to go up a line size to load it properly. The ultra-fast recovery keeps you locked and loaded for any shadows that might appear on the flats. The Beulah Opal G2 Series rods are constructed using state of the art Graphene material, AAAA Cork grips with burl inlays, solid titanium stripper guides, and industries finest Snake brand* guides.
