The Perfect Rod

“Tremor… is sure to strike fear into fish”
A few weeks before this trip I had the opportunity to cast each of the new M-Series fly rods by Mystic Rods, a company based in Clarkston, Michigan. These rods are superb, affordable and I can recommend that you give them a try. After casting these rods, Chris Reister, one of Mystics co-owners, uncased a new prototype saltwater rod. This rod is a 9 foot, 3 inch 10-weight beauty and it immediately caught my eye because I knew I'd be casting 350 or 400 grain full sinking lines on the Lake St. Clair trip. The rod would be ideal, especially if we just happened to get into some Esox. So I asked Chris if I could borrow the rod for a couple weeks. The new name for this saltwater series is "Tremor" and it is sure to strike fear into fish. The prototype Tremor is a very light but powerful stick perfected for fly guys capable of double-hauling heavy lines 70 to 80 feet for hours on end.
