Reviews

DXF 3114

★★★★★

“The first Euro rod I bought myself was a Douglas DXF 11′ 3-weight. I still have it and still fish it regularly. Douglas makes some of the best rods on the market (I’m in love with their Sky G series) and the DXF offers exceptional performance at its price point. The price varies slightly depending on which model you get, although I would have to recommend the 11′ 3-weight. Even on smaller streams, the extra reach of the rod doesn’t get me tangled up in trees any more than usual. What I love most about the DXF, though, is the reserve power packed into the lower sections. Hook into a big fish with this rod, and you’ll have no problem steering it through heavy current or away from logjams. Add to that its excellent build quality, and it’s easy to see why the DXF has so many devoted fans.”

DXF 9' 6wt

★★★★★

“Go to rod for lakes and rivers because it has sensitivity and backbone. Casts easily and effectively short and long.”

- John Egbert

DXF 9'6

★★★★★

“I have been using the Douglas DXF five weight for about six months now, have fought countless fish on it and have loved every minute of using it. Great action and strength makes for a fantastic experience every time. Highly recommend for any kind of freshwater fishing!”

DXF 10' 2wt

★★★★★

“I bought a Douglas DXF 10' 2wt about 4 weeks ago on a whim. I was looking for a light weight euro rod and to be honest Douglas never crossed my mind. I'm really glad I did! This rod is a beast. I've put some great fish in the net, including landlocked salmon in the 20+ inch range, as well as a 20" smallie and several trout in the 16" to 18" range.I never felt under gunned and this rod had both the flex to protect light tippett and the backbone to land large, aggressive fish. I'm honestly surprised at the level of performance. It's light weight and sensitive put it on par with much more expensive rods. If you're on the fence about Douglas, get off and jump, you won't be disappointed.”
