ARC STEELHEAD & SALMON
ARC 1287/3
This is one of three latest models that emerged from our recent ARC research and development project. West Coast anglers wanted a lightweight spey rod for dry line fishing on rivers such as the Deschutes, Kalama, and Stillaguamish. The ARC 1287/3 requires little effort to cast and fish, and will turn over beautiful spey casting loops in the 40-85 foot range. This rod will also satisfy anglers who prefer a shorter, lighter rod for playing their steelhead and salmon.
