O-Rex Fly Rod Circus 12’0 6/7 B Rank

The O-Rex Fly Rod Circus 12’0″ 6/7 B Rank appears to be a specialized fly rod designed for tenkara or keiryu fishing (Japanese fixed-line fly fishing). Here’s a breakdown of its key features:

Specs & Features:
– Length: 12 feet (360 cm) – Ideal for long-line presentations in larger rivers or still waters.
– Line Weight: 6/7 (likely refers to the recommended fluorocarbon level line thickness, e.g., 3.5–4.5).
– Action & Flex: “B Rank” suggests a medium flex (balanced between soft and stiff), offering a good mix of casting control and fish-fighting power.
– Material: Likely high-modulus carbon fiber (common in Japanese tenkara rods).
– Intended Use: Designed for larger fish (like trout, char, or even smallmouth bass) due to its length and line rating.

Pros & Cons:
✔ Long reach – Great for mending line and avoiding drag in currents.
✔ Versatile – Handles both delicate presentations and stronger fish.
✔ Lightweight – Typical of Japanese tenkara rods for fatigue-free fishing.
