At Mavrk we're crazy about Euro-nymphing and tightline angling. We believe that simpler is better when stalking wild river trout so we only offer what you really need. We designed the MV-X rod to be the best performing and best value of any nymph rod on the market. The 10' 6" 3wt. MV-X is ablsolutely the weapon of choice when fishing for trout on any small to medium size river or stream using Tightline technques. The ultra high modulous 46T carbon fiber allows us to make the MV-X long and light, which extends your reach for better dead drifts and line control. Premium carbon fiber is also what makes the rod extra sensitive and recover fast. The butt section of the MV-X rod is stout enough to fight large trout while the tip is soft enought to cast small nymphs with laser accuracy. The MV-X rod casts larger nymphs and streamers supurbly as well. The MV-X rod is the best looking rod, especially if you're into black. The natural matte black cabon fiber finish looks great and also save weight. The all black thread wraps and black guides are nicely complimented with a down locking reel seat that's CNC machined and anodized in a rich gunmetal gray. While most rods come with AA and AAA cork handles, the MV-X uses AAAA cork which will last longer with less pitting. Mavrk rods come with the best replacement parts warranty of any rod available. We offer free replacement parts to any rod registered with Mavrk USA. The MV-X Rod was designed and tested in the High Sierra Mountains of Truckee California where the terrain is rugged, water riddled with boulders and logs, and wild Trout are big and feisty. In waters like this, MV-X rod does it all.
