SMITH Troutin' Spin Fieldream Neue-Limited FNL-T511L-ES ~Ester Special~

Exploring the World of Area Trout with High-Performance Rods

Introducing the "Neue" series, characterized by its ability to delicately hook and capture even the slightest bites. This series has captivated the hearts of trout anglers with its innovative grip design and thoroughly scrutinized blanks from scratch. Each model features guide settings tailored to specific fishing goals, enhancing the overall casting to landing experience.

These rods are designed to maximize enjoyment every moment, from casting to landing. The attention to detail worthy of a limited model invites you deeper into the sophisticated world of area trout fishing.

Neue (New): Revitalizing Area Trout Fishing with Frequent Lure Rotation

The Neue series, long appreciated for its ability to capture fleeting moments with precision, has been reincarnated as a limited model to meet the evolving needs of recent years. The rod length is based on an easy-to-manage 5.11 ft, optimized for range control and designed to minimize the discomfort when switching between tackles.

New Grip Design

The Neue series introduces a down-lock structure for the first time, featuring an easily graspable, new shape grip that remains comfortable even when relaxed. The grip narrows down elegantly, facilitating delicate and precise approaches more comfortably. Notably, the grip includes a standout aluminum pipe at the separation point, enhancing grip rigidity and weight balance, seamlessly connecting with the cork parts to pursue both beauty and usability. This can be considered a key component of the Neue Limited.

Newly Designed Blank

The new blank design features a supple feel and persistent torque when flexed, contributing significantly to the "adaptability" needed for managing a wide range of lure rotations. The release point is easily manageable amidst an exceptional swing, enhancing versatility. Specific models like the T511L-RF and T511ML-F incorporate 'Amorphous Carbon Fiber,' which provides a moist feeling and high impact strength, achieving a high balance between these characteristics.

Note: Amorphous carbon fiber, made from non-crystalline pitch, is known for its flexibility and significant elongation. When combined with base carbon fibers, it enhances compression strength and achieves high impact resistance, making it ideal for demanding fishing conditions.

Specifications List:

★ All models are spinning types.
★ 2-piece configuration.
★ Blank Finish: Un-sanded finish.
★ Guides: Top guide features a titanium frame KGST (SiC) guide; all other guides are titanium frame SiC-S guides.

This series represents the pinnacle of design and performance, offering trout anglers an exceptional tool for pursuing their passion.

FNL-T511L-ES ~Ester Special~

This model is based on the T511L-RF and features specialized guide settings designed to maximize the "sensitivity" and "linear handling" benefits of ester lines, while minimizing line troubles. With significant changes to the guide specifications, this model has increased belly power compared to the T511L-RF. It is optimized for comfortably handling spoons under 2g, especially ultra-small sizes from around 0.4g to 1.6g. For ester cranking, it enables more aggressive approaches based on the distinct vibrating feedback from micro-sized to relatively large crankbaits. This makes it easier to manage during strong winds and effective as a countermeasure against short bites.

Material :

Blends of 30t and 24t carbon graphite, enhancing structural strength and sensitivity.

The T511L-RF and T511ML-F models also incorporate amorphous carbon fiber, which adds to the rod's flexibility and impact resistance.

Grip and Reel Seat :

Material: High-grade cork grip for comfort and durability. The reel seat is made from natural wood with a down-lock, double-screw mechanism, providing a secure and aesthetic attachment of the reel. Each wood spacer, being natural wood, has a unique pattern, adding to the distinctiveness of each rod.

Separate Section :

Aluminum parts with a curved design reminiscent of a glass stem are used at the separation point, contributing to the rod's elegant appearance.

Ferrule :

All models use an over-ferrule design. The base of the tip section is marked with the model name, which aids in identification and adds a touch of class.

Traditional Decorative Wrapping and Blank Painting :

The Neue series continues its tradition of decorative wrapping and selective painting on the blank. The butt and tip sections are painted, while the rest of the blank maintains an un-sanded finish, providing a rustic yet refined look.

Guide :

Selected guide settings optimized for the concept of each model.
Note: All models are equipped with KGST (top guide) and titanium frame SiC-S guides.

① Two-stage winding check designed to minimize play in the blank.

② The shape of the rear-end grip is easy to grasp during double-hand casting and comfortably aligns with the arm in various situations.

③ When propped against the ground, the end cap made from hard EVA material is slip-resistant and less likely to catch on cold-weather gear or rainwear.
