Wychwood Ionica 9ft 6Inch #7 Fly Rod

The Wychwood Ionica Fly Rod 9ft 6in #7 (4-Piece) is built for the angler who demands distance, backbone and finesse. Crafted from high modulus carbon fibre with advanced resin technology, this rod delivers a medium fast action that allows for powerful casts while maintaining the sensitivity to detect subtle takes.

With its 4-piece travel friendly construction, the Ionica is made to be carried easily and assembled swiftly but doesn’t sacrifice strength or touch. It comes with a protective rod tube, ensuring safe transport whether you’re trekking to a remote stillwater or casting from the bank.

Styling and components are premium throughout: oil-sick ‘Sea Guide’ ring guides minimise glare and protect the line flow, whilst the anodised machined aluminium skeletal reel seat adds durability without unnecessary weight. The composite cork handle, with colour-matched EVA detailing, offers comfort during long sessions, complemented by a fighting butt to help you maintain control over larger fish.

Line weight #7 gives this rod the power to cast larger flies and handle stronger currents or winds, making it versatile in UK stillwaters, reservoirs, or larger rivers. Whether you’re chasing bigger trout, pike, or pulling in voluminous dries, the Ionica #7 hits the sweet spot between performance and usability.

Finished with a non flash matte blank that exudes understated elegance, this rod doesn’t shout but performs loud. If you want a rod that pairs premium build quality with all-round power and travel convenience, the Ionica 9ft 6in #7 is a top choice.
