Marksman Drifter Rod

Marksman Drifter Rod

This is a specialist, long length, light line rod with an exceptionally smooth and friendly action. An ideal rod to fish lough-style with small flies for wild fish. You can dibble or you can put out a longer line. Also good for light float tube work and ideal if you want that little bit more length for Czech nymphing. The rod comes with optional extension handles, so you can you can use either a short or long fighting butt - yet if neither is needed, simply replace with the nickel-silver screw in the end cap. A versatile rod that brings a new dimension to the Marksman range.

Voted Best Rod in Category for £400 Plus by Andrew Flitcroft, Editor of Trout & Salmon Magazine, August 2009.

Testimonials

"It's like Hardy built the nine foot five weight Marksman with my own rivers in mind. Power. Presentation. Sensitivity. Delicacy. Speed. Agility. They're the qualities I need and what the rod delivers. And now there's the Drifter that gives me the same standards for my lake fishing too."

Stevie Kennedy - Irish guide and Hardy & Greys Academy Member

"Fishing with the new 10' 6# Marksman Drifter Rod last night it is the best 10' 6# rod I have used so far! I was very impressed with the rod - it's a joy to fish with!"
