THOMAS & THOMAS CONTACT II 1002-4 FLY ROD : 10'0" 2WT
The Thomas and Thomas
Contact II 1002-4 fly rod is the ultimate euro nymph fly rod designed to make the modern
tight line angler as comfortable as possible. The Contact II 1002-4 offers superior sensitivity and length giving every angler the confidence they need to feel every strike. Picking up on every little bump or bite is curial when targeting picky trout, the Contact II 1002-4 provides the most dependable tight-line euro rod ever designed. When Thomas and Thomas set out to
design the Contact II rods, they wanted a rod that could improve accuracy, sensitivity,
and strength. The Contact II blank construction utilizes five different types of
premium quality carbon and fiberglass fibers, bound together by a proprietary
aerospace resin system. These components have been carefully selected to
maximize performance and comfort. Adjusting guides spacing moves a “Low Rider” style
stripping guide to the butt section of each Contact II, this helps decrease line
snag from the angler’s hand to the first guide. With the growth and rising
popularity of Euro and Competition nymphing over the last couple of years,
there is no doubt that the Thomas and Thomas Contact II fly rod is the future
for all nymphing anglers around the world.

This rod is one of my favorites in the Contact II line for its versatility. Fit and finish is superb, as expected. It excels at micro thin leader nymphing and offers exceptional accuracy. Paired with an Orvis Hydros WF #2 fly line, the rod excels at delicate dry fly presentations.
