Rod Overview, Use, & Application By comparison, the DXF GEN2 S6904 is the saltwater adapted version of the standard 6904 fly rod. It is a spitting-image of the standard 6904, with a few small differences. The S6904 features a blue blank and B style handle, as opposed to the green blank and A style handle on the standard 6904. Both fly rods carry a 9’0″ 6-weight build to balance versatility, accuracy, and finesse. They bring refined accuracy, solid mid-range power, and quality craftsmanship to the table. Additionally, both rods are great for intermediate to advanced trout anglers who fish streams, rivers, or lakes using large dries, streamers, or nymphs. T he S6904 is made for excellent tip stability to reduce lateral flex, while improving loop control and delivering pinpoint accuracy. This rod handles larger dries, streamers, and heavy nymph rigs well. In addition, it can finesse delicate, precision-oriented casts with the best of them. Because of this, the 9′ 6 wt will easily slot into the middle of your lineup, covering a huge range of applications, species, and fishing styles. For everything from freshwater panfish, trout, and bass, to small saltwater species, the DXF GEN2 S6904 is your go-to rod. The B style full-wells grip, bigger stripper guides, and corrosion-resistant hardware can handle everything that saltwater has to throw at it. The S6904 features a brilliant deep blue flake blank, dark-neo-plated stainless guides, dual-locking uplock seat with Nylatron inserts, AAA cork grip with rubber tips, Cordura tube + cloth sock, and limited lifetime warranty. Finally, it has all the features and feel of the industry’s highest-rated fly rods at half the cost.
