{"product_id":"loop-flyt-travel-fly-rod","title":"LOOP Flyt Travel Fly Rod","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe LOOP Flyt Fly Rod solves one of the traditional problems with travel rods. It packs down small without being designed to feel like a compromise once you start casting. LOOP builds the Flyt around M40X carbon fibre, combining low weight with fast recovery and a responsive casting feel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe single-handed Flyt uses a five-piece construction. This significantly reduces its packed length compared with a conventional four-piece fly rod. Therefore, it fits easily into normal travel luggage and makes an excellent choice for anglers who regularly fly with their fishing equipment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHowever, portability is only part of the design. The M40X blank provides a strong strength-to-weight ratio and recovers quickly after each cast. As a result, the rod generates good line speed while maintaining the control required for accurate presentation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eFlyt Action\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLOOP gives the Flyt a medium-fast action rather than making it excessively stiff. This creates a useful balance between casting power and feedback. It also makes the rod adaptable to different fly lines and fishing techniques.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eComponent quality sets the Flyt apart from more basic travel rods. LOOP fits custom REC Cerecoil stripping and snake guides, an ergonomic Flor-grade cork handle and a weight-optimised performance reel seat. Each rod also comes in a protective aluminium tube.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 9' #5 Flyt 590 weighs just 81g. Its recommended casting weight is 12–14g or 185–216 grains. It covers dry flies, nymphs and lighter streamers, making it the more versatile trout option.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe more powerful 9'6\" #7 Flyt 796 weighs 107g and carries 18–22g or 278–340 grains. This model handles larger flies and sinking lines more comfortably. It also provides extra power for sea trout, salmon and other stronger fish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe real reason to choose the LOOP Flyt is straightforward. It gives travelling anglers a genuinely compact five-piece rod while retaining the materials, components and casting characteristics expected from a premium LOOP fly rod.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eModels\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFlyt 590 — 9' | #5 | 81g | 5-piece | 12–14g \/ 185–216gr\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFlyt 796 — 9'6\" | #7 | 107g | 5-piece | 18–22g \/ 278–340gr\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eSwitch \u0026amp; Double-Hand Models\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe LOOP Flyt range extends into dedicated Switch and Double-Hand rods, giving salmon and sea trout anglers the same travel-friendly concept as the single-hand models.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Flyt 7116 Switch is an 11'6\" #7, five-piece rod weighing 166g. It uses a medium-fast action and carries 24–28g Scandi heads or 400–450 grain Skagit heads. Its shorter length makes it particularly useful on small and medium rivers, tight pools and places with limited room behind the caster. It can work as a compact two-handed rod, while retaining enough control for lighter salmon and sea trout fishing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Double-Hand Flyt rods move to a six-piece construction. This is a significant part of their ROC: you get a proper salmon rod from 13ft right through to 15ft, but in a format designed specifically for travelling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFlyt 7130 – 13' #7\u003cbr\u003e\n208g | Scandi 26–30g | Skagit 450–500gr\u003cbr\u003e\nA lighter double-hander for medium rivers, lighter salmon fishing and modern Scandi or Skagit setups.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFlyt 8132 – 13'2\" #8\u003cbr\u003e\n213g | Scandi 28–34g | Skagit 500–550gr\u003cbr\u003e\nA versatile all-round salmon model.

Its extra length and line weight provide greater reach, line control and casting authority when fishing large salmon rivers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll four Double-Hand models use the same M40X carbon technology, Flor-grade cork, REC Cerecoil guides and weight-optimised reel seat found throughout the premium Flyt range.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003ePerformance\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFast recovery helps the Flyt form controlled loops and generate useful line speed. Meanwhile, its medium-fast action retains enough feel for presentation and line control. The #5 favours versatile trout fishing, while the #7 provides extra power for larger flies, sinking lines and stronger fish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eWho Is It For?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Flyt suits anglers who travel regularly but do not want a basic travel rod. The 9' #5 covers general trout fishing, while the 9'6\" #7 suits heavier freshwater and coastal work.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Loop","offers":[{"title":"9' #5","offer_id":57598329356614,"sku":null,"price":849.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"9'6\" #7","offer_id":57598329389382,"sku":null,"price":849.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"11'6\" #7 Switch","offer_id":57598329422150,"sku":null,"price":1009.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"13' #7 Double Hand","offer_id":57598329454918,"sku":null,"price":1219.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"13'2\" #8 Double Hand","offer_id":57598329487686,"sku":null,"price":1219.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"14' #9 Double Hand","offer_id":57598329520454,"sku":null,"price":1219.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"15' #10 Double Hand","offer_id":57598329553222,"sku":null,"price":1274.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1024\/6651\/9366\/files\/loop-flyt-series-single-hand-travel-rods-5pcs-5-9-ft-275-cm-_2.webp?v=1791998764","url":"https:\/\/slaneyfishing.com\/products\/loop-flyt-travel-fly-rod","provider":"Slaney Fishing","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
