Fly Rod Shimano Biocraft XR Fly

Biocraft XR Fly rods in lengths of 8’6” and 9’ are an ideal choice for versatile fly fishing on both rivers and stillwaters. They offer a perfect balance between delicate presentation and sufficient power reserve for longer casts and playing larger fish. Thanks to the 4-piece construction, they are easy to transport, while their light weight and responsive action ensure maximum control over the line and flies in every situation.

Biocraft XR rods represent a top-tier combination of advanced carbon technology and angling expertise. The Biocraft XR Fly rods are the most technologically advanced fly rods ever produced by Shimano and provide a remarkable combination of casting performance, fishing practicality and value.

The Biocraft XR is a remarkable combination of carbon technology and angling knowledge. Pick one up and you’ll immediately understand the relationship. Light, responsive, perfectly finished, the Biocraft XR punches well above its price point and is a serious challenger to some of the ultra high priced American competitors. Each one is an exquisite work of art, immediately becoming an extension of your arm by the water.

At the heart of each Biocraft XR is an astounding combination of exclusive Shimano carbon technology, blended to achieve the perfect action for the rods application. The high modulus blanks feature HPC, Biofibre, Nanosheet and Diaflash in different blends. This combination results in lightness and finesse where it is required and controlling power and peerless casting performance in the more powerful models.

As you would expect from a premium rod, fittings are of the highest order and have been selected for their performance characteristics. Seaguide and Fuji SIC guides ensure lightness combined with strength, Seaguide reel seats blend perfectly with the traditional cork handles and every rod comes with a velvet bag and a hardcase carry tube.
