A.Jensen Anadrome Switch 11ft

The Anadrome Switch is a switch rod build with AHT technology and it resulted in a very light and extremely well casting rod for the smaller rivers or light line low water summer fishing.

The test-fishermen just loved this rod for performance and design as well. Despite its low weight and finesse action it has a lot of power for handling big fish and casting sinking lines.

These two rods has in a very short time gained almost cult status among the test guys. The reason being its unique combination of power, elegance and performace + the fact it is in 5 pcs = easy to stove away during transportation...

As one of the test guys said: “It’s like the craziest combination of Charlize Theron (elegance and beauty) and Mike Tyson (brute power) in one blank – I don’t know how else to describe it!!”

At A.Jensen we just love that description...

The blank is beautiful deep olive colored, with matching olive thread tipped with Gold. Minima Titanium shooting guides from American Pacbay and high-quality Hard Chrome double-leg Snakes and top guides.  Oversized quality guides for maximized line travel when casting long lines. The handle is made of the highest obtainable Portuguese cork and the reel-seat is made in aircraft graded-aluminium with olive tinted hardwood

About A.Jensen Flyrods

ONE OF THE TRADEMARKS OF THE A. JENSEN RODS IS THE TIME WE SPEND ON EACH MODEL BEFORE IT ENTERS THE MARKET. WE WILL RATHER TAKE ONE YEAR EXTRA WITH THE TEST TEAM AND DESIGNERS, THAN FORCE PRODUCTS INTO THE MARKET, THAT WE DON’T HAVE FULL CONFIDENCE IN. 

WE DESIGN OUR RODS, BASED ON A PRACTICAL ANGLE TO FLYFISHING. FIRST OF ALL, WE ARE FLYFISHERS OURSELF, AND WE WORK WITH THE AIM TO MAKE GREAT EQUIPMENT, IN ORDER FOR YOU TO EXPERIENCE MORE EFFECTIVE FISHING, AND MOST IMPORTANT MORE JOY IN FLYFISHING.

BY OUR TERMS A FLY ROD IS NOT JUST A CASTING TOOL, BUT A TOOL FOR FISHING.

By that we mean that it should handle both the casting and the joy of fishing and playing a fish at the same time.
Beside that we wanted to create rods, that are able to cast both long lines and shorter lines with full control, as this is one of the crucial aspects of flyfishing. With many modern flyrods, you only get the rod properly loaded, with a lot of line outside the top, and only from that point on will you cast with full control. We want our rods to load with short lines, but still, be able to cast long lines.

In order to achieve what we want we make a so-called “compensated tip”, meaning a tip that loads quickly. One could make the top of softer material, but then you get a rod action, that feels strange when casting. 
Instead, we use “Advanced Helical Taper” technology and thereby creating a rod, where the top of the rod loads quickly, without being soft. The “Advanced Helical Taper”  technology means changing and opening the angle of the helical wound graphite towards the top. By using the same material, and still under the same amount of tons of pressure as the rest of the blank, we get a rod, that performs with a unique balance.

The quick loading top has many benefits. When fishing shorter lines, such as when fishing dries and nymphs, you will have more accuracy and control.

When fishing stillwaters, both lakes and salts, you will with much ease be able to shoot the first meters of line, as the rod actually cast the line right from the first false cast. There is no “waving” the rod, to get so much line out, that the rod actually loads and casts. Your casting strokes will be more balanced, as you get the rhythm right from the start of the cast. It will simply put feel easier. On top of that, the rod is a light and sensitive instrument, and an absolute joy to play a fish on. This brings us back to the where we started – We want to make a fishing rod, not just a casting rod.
