Product details
Description
Technology
Built on Shimano’s proprietary Spiral X technology, ASQUITH SPEY utilizes a three-layer construction consisting of a core layer, a longitudinal middle layer, and a reverse-axis fiber outer layer. This advanced blank architecture increases rigidity without adding weight, reduces ovalization under load, and delivers virtually instantaneous power transmission—whether generating high line speed during the cast or maintaining control when fighting powerful fish.
Premium components further elevate performance. SiC titanium Recoil snake guides paired with SiC titanium stripper guides reduce weight, improve line management, and enhance durability in demanding environments. A Flor-grade cork grip provides secure, comfortable handling, while a custom aluminum reel seat with a CI4+ insert ensures strength, balance, and long-term reliability.
Every Asquith fly rod represents an uncompromising commitment to precision, innovation, and performance at the highest level of fly fishing.

SPIRAL X
Shimano’s proprietary Spiral X technology utilizes triple layer construction consisting of an oblique fiber core layer, a longitudinal middle layer, and a reverse-oblique fiber outer layer. This unique construction increases rigidity without increasing weight, providing virtually instantaneous power transmission when casting or fighting a fish.

SiC TITANIUM STRIPPER + TITANIUM RECOIL
The perfect marriage of strength, weight savings, and stealth. While our ultra-light titanium snake and single-foot running guides look the part of a traditional guide, the added benefit of flexibility is great insurance when storing your sticks in a skiff or drift boat.
