Hey guys, received my latest issue (Fall 2006) of American Angler magazine in the mail yesterday and happened to glance at the back cover and noticed a Scott ad announcing a new series of saltwater fly rods for 2007.
Designated the Scott X2S Saltwater Series, they come in 4-pieces for line weights 6 - 12. The 12 wt. also comes in a 2-piece configuration. Price is $575 for the 6 - 9 wts., $595 for the 10 - 12 wts.
The ad picture reveals what appears to be a gunmetal-colored uplocking aluminum real seat with cork/black foam-tipped fighting butt and an aqua blue-colored blank with white alignment dots for matching up sections. Thread wraps appear to be a matching blue color with 4 closely-spaced silver single-wrap accents in each wrap.
The picture reveals a nice looking rod in my opinion, and I will be curious to see where it fits in the Scott A2, E2, S3, S3S line-up of rod actions.
