The practice of fishing in a lake or reservoir requires the use of different types of lines, floating, intermediate or extra sinking. Over the years, I have encountered many fishermen who faced the same problem: that of the effectiveness of casting between the floating line and the sinking line...
First and foremost; a brief technical reminder is required: Each line corresponds to a weight that determines its number. The only downside is that this weight is calculated over 30 feet (a little over 9 meters). For example, a 7 line must weigh 12g, an 8 line must weigh 13.5g. Yes! only 1.5g differentiates them. When we design a rod, we use a tolerance range as a reference, which for a 7 line example ranges between 11.5g and 12.5g.
What about the practice? How many fishermen stop at 9 meters before shooting? 1 out of 10? It is often heard: "my rod bends with a sinking line". The new line profiles like the Forty Plus from Airflo or the XS tra from Snowbee only increase the problem... Indeed, many of us shoot after pulling out 12 or 15 meters... which is often more than 15g with a 7 line rod which actually corresponds to the weight of a 9... Use a 9 line rod? No, impossible you would not be able to pull out the first meters of line...
It is therefore a major innovation that is proposed here: The "same rod" but in version F (from floating to S2) and in version S (from S3 to S7). One is capable of cleanly laying at a distance and the other of shooting heavy lines with a greater tolerance range. With your two Marryat Tactical "Bombarde" you cover all situations.
