Not all serious anglers want to shell out the "big bucks" for a complete setup. So we developed the Traverse Kit for those looking for a complete, ready-to-fish, high performance, budget-friendly rig. We designed the Traverse Rod as an exclusive for this kit. Its "do it all" action, impressive componentry and good looks all tie this incredible package together. No high-performance rod is complete without a quality fly line to help showcase its strongest attributes. That's why we are including a premium Airflo "all-purpose" weight-forward floating fly line loaded on to the battle-tested ECHO ION Reel.Features Include:Four piece travel designMed Fast action rodFabric-covered rod & reel caseLightweight ceramic stripping guidesFeatures a standard cork gripIon ReelIncludes backing, line and leader
