Kabuto 7'6" 4wt Brown Fiberglass Fly Rod / Stacked Natural Bamboo Reel Seat
Kabuto 7'6" 4wt Brown / Natural Bamboo — Handcrafted in Japan
Warm, natural, and built with the precision that only Japanese craftsmanship can deliver. The Kabuto 7'6" 4wt Brown / Natural Bamboo is a fiberglass fly rod that pairs a rich brown blank with a natural (unflamed) stacked bamboo reel seat — clean, understated, and beautiful in the way only real materials can be.
At 7'6" for a 4-weight line, this rod strikes the ideal balance between reach and delicacy. The fiberglass blank loads with a smooth, progressive action that rewards a patient caster and excels on medium-sized streams, spring creeks, and anywhere a soft presentation matters. The natural bamboo reel seat brings warmth and character to every cast — no two seats are identical.
