NEW for 2015, Innovator’s HLS2 series is the best range of fly rods produced by the brand since its emergence on the fly fishing scene nearly 30 years ago.
Building on the success of Innovator’s Velocity series, HLS2 series rods are crafted from a new type of graphite the boasts improved durability and core strength through an advanced multi-directional carbon-fibre matrix. The result is a series of Innovator fly rods that are lighter and stronger than ever before.
Each line class represents its true purpose too – by this we mean the creek rods in 3wt and 4wt are medium action; the river and lake rods are medium-fast actions; and the saltwater series are fast actions.
As most experienced fly fishers will agree, there’s no need to have a fast action in a creek rod, where light tippets, delicate presentations and short distances are its primary use; likewise, it’s important to have a fast action in 7wt, 8wt and 9wt weight rods, where weighted, air-resistant saltwater flies and fast-moving fish are the primary target.
As is the case with all Innovator fly rods, no corners have been cut in the production of the Innovator HLS2 series, with quality workmanship and exceptional performance equal to that of some rods that are twice the price!
