The Loon Outdoors Loon Flexistripper is a revolutionary innovation in the world of fly fishing, designed to offer a practical and efficient alternative to traditional reeling baskets. Developed by Bjarne Fries, a renowned Danish manufacturer of split bamboo rods, and acclaimed by many fly fishermen and fly casting competitors since its launch, the Flexistripper rethinks line management to enhance the fishing experience.
Unlike traditional baskets, the Flexistripper has no sides, offering several significant advantages. These include a noticeable reduction in line wrap thanks to open Flexi bands, facilitating intuitive line management and eliminating the risk of injury from sharp basket edges when casting.
Its design allows customization according to the user's preferences: for a right-handed thrower, the most natural placement of the Flexistripper will be slightly to the left, and for a left-handed thrower, slightly to the right. This position can be adjusted to suit personal preferences and weather conditions, such as in strong crosswinds, where the Flexistripper can be moved further to the side to avoid interference.
Under normal conditions, the belt is worn around the hip. When entering deeper water, simply pull the belt up over the torso until the Flexistripper no longer touches the water, offering unprecedented flexibility and easy adaptation to different fishing situations.
The Loon Flexistripper's high-quality, flexible neoprene belt ensures a comfortable, secure fit, with little or no need for readjustment. This makes the Flexistripper not only extremely practical and functional, but also comfortable for hours of fishing.
The Loon Outdoors Loon Flexistripper is therefore a major breakthrough for fly fishermen looking to optimize their line management without the constraints of traditional solutions, combining innovation, comfort and efficiency in a unique design.
