The Stinger fits all rods.
At Mavrk, we believe that lighter is better when tight line nymphing. Lightweight gear allows better arm reach and control of your line. It also improves the sensitivity and performance of your rod.
Stinger Micro reels are the lightest reels in the world and designed specifically to improve contact nymphing.

Reducing reel’s weight and inertia increases rod tip control when casting. Starting, stopping and directional changes are quicker as well. Force=Mass x Acceleration

Contact nymphing is improved with longer rods and arm reach to suspend the line off the water's surface. The lighter your gear, the better your line control and dead-drifts.

The Mavrk Dual rod with the stinger M1 is my most used set up of all time. The M1 comes fully loaded with Mavrks tracer line, which is my favorite ESN line out on the market. This set up is ready to get you catching fish right out of the tube. As a guide in Pennsylvania I have seen everyone from beginners to pros catch on this set up.

Stinger M1/Dual Rod - Combo Kit
2+ years fishing a Stinger M1 and it's my go-to for 90% of my days on the water. So light, simple, and versatile. I have one set up with a European-style mono rig for fishing local rivers. Have played and landed plenty of hard-fighting fish in big water and also late season skinny water. The Stinger M1 really shines on the longest days of fishing, so light, my casting arm stays fresh start to finish with sensitivity to detect those subtle takes I might otherwise miss.
