EDGE Linen Envy (LinEn.V) 867-3
$899.00
- Linen/Flax is a natural hollow fiber
- The resulting action is very similar to fiberglass, but with a very quick dampening/recovery akin to carbon fiber
- It has a beautiful woody look and texture but due to the hollow nature of the blank is incredibly lightweight
- Flax is incredibly durable, the best description is a hybrid between glass and carbon fiber – it is not afraid of high sticking
- Flax fiber does have some memory – if you overstress the sections, it will remain slightly bent and can be straightened back, or left alone for a period to recover (similar to bamboo)

This rod model is what we call the saltwater version. Equipped with a fighting butt its action is extra-extra-fast to help punch through the wind when you are fishing the surf or the flats. Powerful enough to handle bonefish. Perfect for speckled trout, snook, and juvenile permit. The saltwater models focus on accuracy of the cast, reinforced by extra power in the mid-section for distance casting.
This is a powerful rod for a variety of fly situations. Excellent for trout where streamers and sinking lines are used, it is also a good start-up size for bonefish in light wind conditions. What’s more, it’ll handle smallmouth bass and other warmwater fish that require streamer flies and popping bugs.
The 9-foot 8wt is a versatile, medium-heavy outfit suited to larger flies and floating or sinking lines. It is the number one choice among saltwater anglers for flats fishing, as it is capable of handling the predominant flies used in that environment.
