As a company, we are always searching for new and better technologies for our rods and line systems. In an effort to refine our 8wt Pure Skagit rod, we discovered a new graphite blend with an undeniable “wow” factor. From that discovery, the SHS Pure Skagit generation was born. Featuring a crisper action and updated graphite technology, these rods still carry the action originally approved by Ed Ward. With a new down-locking reel seat and components, plus a glossy cleared blank and premium cork, this rod stands apart. We retained REC Cericoil guides to enhance flex and durability.
