The Mackenzie DTX design team are excited with the launch of it’s new range of Shooting head rods, this range is following on from the phenomenal success of it’s award winning range of DTX Spey rods, the design team have created something very special in this new range of Shooting head rods, and lines for 2011,this new range combines over a 100 years of collective experience on the river bank, along with modern thinking and up to date 21st Century technology.
This DTX blank has been designed to suit modern shooting head line systems.
The handle has been specially designed to give the caster perfect bottom hand grip for better control when flexing the rod, and the correct upper hand positioning on the handle so the caster flexes the rod correctly, making casting effortless.
The full range of rods were tested in Russia, and Tierra del Fuego last year and all models excelled, in some of the harshest, and most challenging environment in fishing,
There are 4 new models to choose from in the DTX Shooting Head Rod range, along with a full range of
Mackenzie shooting head fly lines designed specifically to work in harmony with these rods.
