Taking features and inspiration from their pricier models like the Truth and Anomaly and applying it to a more budget-friendly design, Taylor’s Dynamix Fly Rod gives excellent performance without your savings taking a hit. A lightweight design with a medium-fast action that comes in 3, 4, 5, 6, and 8 line weights, the Dynamix can tackle anything from small trout streams to large bass, and its 8 weight model is equipped for light saltwater use. A family of rods that can handle a variety of tactics, situations, and species, Taylor’s Dynamix is an affordable option that doesn’t short you on quality. From beginners catching their first trout on a dry fly to experienced anglers looking for an affordable option to bang the bank with streamers, there’s a Dynamix in this series that can meet everyone’s demands.
High Modulus Carbon Fiber - Taking a taper design from their Anomaly rod and applying it to the Dynamix, this rod loads effectively and has a smooth medium-fast action and recovery speed. A real pleasure to cast, the Dynamix is built out of high modulus carbon fiber that offers a super lightweight feel and lets you present anything from a tiny emerger to a large streamer with excellent accuracy. Coming in matte blue color, the Dynamix has a look that’s as stealthy as its delivery, and there’s a model in the series whether you’re popping bass bugs or casting to snook in the first trough.
Hard Chrome Single Foot (4, 5, 6wt) Snake Guides (8wt) and Chrome Stripping Guides - To ensure that you’re always getting the most out of each cast, Taylor outfits their Dynamix series with chrome stripping guides and hard chrome single foot guides for 4, 5, and 6 weights, while their 8 weight gets snake guides. Perfect for shooting line, these guides will reduce friction and remain durable for seasons to come.
Engraved Burled Wood Reel Seat - Blending function and performance with a clean look, Taylor’s Dynamix collection has a burled wood reel seat that includes an engraved Taylor logo. A classy combination, this reel seat sports a clean look and ensures that your reel is always securely seated.
Cordura Rod Tube and Sock - To keep things safe and sound whether you’re traveling or just en route to the next stream, Taylor includes a tough cordura rod tube and rod sock. Ideal for the traveling angler, this addition will prevent problems when on-the-go.
