Bruce & Walker: Powerlite Deluxe Trout rods

 

Constructed from a purpose built mixture of high modulus and high tensile carbon, exclusively made in Britain for Bruce and Walker, this deluxe range is truly the finest ever made. The finish is a high gloss dark blue with co-ordinating blue whippings. They have hard chrome SIC butt ring, hard chrome tip ring, with intermediate snake rings. The cork handle is of the highest, Flor grade cork. The elegant new pewter coloured high grade aluminium screw winch fitting completes the rod.

All Powerlite trout rods come in three sections, with a durable aluminium tube for safe transportation. The Powerlite deluxe range of trout rods have a middle to tip action action without being two ‘tippy’. They will take weight forward lines as well as double tapers. Overall this is an outstanding range of rods, which competes with the worlds best for what is a very competitive price.
