Center axis fly rod review.
Reel system has revolutionized the concept of balance in fly fishing.
There are two key elements to center axis.
Is casting really believing.
At 40 feet the center axis is very accurate.
The center axis may be the most meaningful advancement in fly rod performance since graphite replaced fiberglass all those decades ago.
By closely aligning the center mass of our litespeed c a reel with the center axis of our rod we ve de levered the mass of the heavier object.
The center axis mount changes the feel of a fly rod entirely.
There is some solid science behind.
The center axis fly rod and reel combo from waterworks lamson is something completely different.

This placement also minimizes the levering effect that typical reel placement has on the setup making it easier to balance a heavier reel.
The idea of changing the union of fly rod and reel has been kicked around for a while now.
The center axis rod amp.
Overall the center axis lived up to the hype in the accuracy category.
The supreme test of a fly fisherman is not how many fish he has caught not even how he has caught them but what he has caught when he has caught no fish.

Moving back 60 feet is perhaps the favorite distance to cast the center axis as the effect of the axis increases with more rod movement.
The result will amaze you.
Pm me for pricing.
Lamson center axis reel rod systems in the past a rod designer s vision has excluded the reel but the fact is the reel is around twice as heavy as the rod and creates significant leverage.
It s certainly a unique idea and it s waterworks lamson s first foray into the fly rod business not just the fly reel business.
By closely aligning the center mass of our litespeed reel with the center axis of our medium fast action rod we ve de levered the mass of the heavier object.
By closely aligning the center mass of our litespeed reel with the center axis of our rods we ve de levered the mass of the heavier object.
Lamson placed the mass of the litespeed reel in line with the rod s axis reducing the twisting forces generated by traditional setups during casting.

Ben offers his thoughts on the new lamson center axis design.
It looks very different from a traditional fly rod and it feels very different as well.
To my knowledge the center axis is the most serious attempt by a major manufacturer.
It s rare for manufacturers to attempt giant leaps but waterworks lamson has done just that and should be commended for that alone.
As per the company.
I have a sage 0 weight center axis for sale.
