With a mid-length head and half-size heavy design, GOLD XP is the most versatile taper in the GOLD lineup. The added "extra power" relative to classic GOLD gives it the flexibility to cover the widest variety of techniques and casting distances, offering truly blended performance. Thanks to its medium-long rear taper and a balanced body for improved turnover of indicators and nymphs, GOLD XP is at home sending drys at distance, running heavier rigs though deeper pools and making quick shots from drift boats. GOLD XP is still perfectly capable of delivering precise presentations with delicacy, while its added weight makes the line fish and cast comfortably at shorter distances, typical of wading on smaller waters.
Choose Gold XP for Extra Power + Extra Versatility.
- Mid-length head and half-size heavy weight for carrying a long line comfortably, plus quickly loading rods at short distances
- Medium-long rear taper for maintaining line control at distance, both in the air and on the water while mending
- Balanced body blends upfront punch for turning over a range of rigs with enough rear power for short to mid-length shots
- Mid-length front taper for turning over heavier rigs on shorter leaders powerfully or tiny drys on longer leaders with finesse

Dope fly shop, crazy selection of flies including big topwater bass flies of all sorts, and big pike flies which are pretty hard to find in person. Chill staff, loads of inventory. I make a point to stop here every time I'm in Toronto!

This is the best fly fishing store I have frequented in my 30 year fly fishing experience. The owner Rob, store manager Chris and the rest of the team are very knowledgeable about products and local fly fishing locations. They will guide you towards best products for your needs, and will not try to upsell if a lower priced option is better for you...
Simon Chapman
If you are in the GTA Drift is the only fly shop you need. They have an insane amount of quality tying products, packs, waders, boots, rods and reels. They also have the best staff w/ a staggering knowledge base.
