Ed Ward on the Birth of Micro Skagit Rods.

When Ed Ward designed the Micro Series Rods (our 3-5wt) he did so with explicit intent to replicate some of his favorite rods that he had converted from single-hand rods into two-hand rods to fit the Skagit-style fishing he was doing in his new environment. The short upper grip allows for more feel and ease in single-hand Skagit casting, while the lower switch grip allows for a two-hand approach when the situation dictates. This equals a rod that is very versatile, and well as a heck of a lot of fun to cast and fish!
