Designed for modern huchen fly fishing
The Hucho Professional was developed in response to the growing interest in modern huchen fly fishing. The focus was clear: fast action, robustness and the ability to cast heavy shooting heads and large huchen streamers without compromise.
The result is a rod with the power needed for demanding casts and enough backbone to keep control when fighting large fish.
Why 11 feet makes sense
The 11 ft (335 cm) length gives excellent line control when fishing large streamers and allows both overhead and Spey-style casts. This makes the rod suitable for big rivers, deep runs and demanding conditions where a standard trout rod is simply not enough.
Thymallus experience
At Thymallus, we have been involved in huchen fly fishing for many years. We do not choose equipment for this category only by reading catalogue specifications. We choose it based on what makes sense on the water.
Over the years, we have handled and tested many powerful rods from different brands. The Hucho Professional caught our attention because of its fast action, robust blank and concept clearly aimed at modern huchen fly fishing.
Quality components
The rod is fitted with a CERECOIL stripping guide and RECOIL snake guides, known for low weight, durability and long service life. The selected cork handle offers a secure grip during long sessions, while the modern aluminium reel seat keeps the reel firmly in place even with heavy line systems.
