NX1 Atlas - 6pc

Sale price Price £490.83 Regular price

NX1 Atlas range is the ideal fly rod for storage and travelling. Its compact nature means the rod can be taken on a flight even as hand luggage.. Moving on from their award-winning designs the team at Mackenzie are very excited about this new range of 6 piece Nano tube technology rods. The new NXI Atlas rods load slightly further down the blank than the other NX1 models but they still retain a fast recovery giving you the perfect action for casting both traditional Spey lines and the full assortment of modern-day shooting heads and Skagit fly lines.

As with all Mackenzie products these new rods have been fully tested in some of the world’s most demanding and challenging fishing locations and excelled at all times.

 

12’7 NX1 Atlas

This is also a very popular rod for fishing for large sea trout and steelheads. Like its big brother the 13’7 Atlas, it has a fairly deep progressive action but importantly retaining a fast recovery.
