GOLD XP delivers exceptional versatility through its mid-length head and half-size heavy construction, positioning it as the most adaptable option in the GOLD series. The enhanced power compared to classic GOLD enables seamless performance across diverse techniques and casting distances. Its medium-long rear taper and balanced profile excel at turning over indicators and nymphs with authority, making it equally proficient launching dry flies at range, managing heavy rigs in deep currents, or executing rapid presentations from drift boats. Despite its added mass, GOLD XP maintains the precision needed for delicate casts while remaining comfortable to fish and cast at shorter distances—ideal for intimate wading scenarios on smaller streams.

Choose GOLD XP for Extra Power + Extra Versatility.

• Mid-length head and half-size heavy weight balances the ability to carry line against quickly loading the rod for shorter casts
  
• Medium-long rear taper maintains line control for longer presentations, both in the air as well as on the water while mending
  
• Balanced body with ample power at the front to turn over the widest range of rigs, plus enough rear power to load rods more deeply for short- to mid-length shots
  
• Mid-length front taper for increased versatility: Capable of turning over heavier rigs on shorter leaders powerfully or tiny dry flies on long leaders with finesse
