Sage Xi2 (Free Shipping) - $695.00

Sage Xi2 (Free Shipping)

$695.00

Sage Xi2 - The standard by which all saltwater rods are measured

Built with their innovative new Generation 5 technology, these rods are at once lighter and more lively than their predecessors. But that’s only the beginning. The truly revolutionary benefits of the Xi2 are revealed when you cast it. The Modulus Positioning System (MPS) Team Sage has developed for these rods provides a startling level of "line feel" throughout the casting stroke. This enhanced ability to feel the rod load allows you to apply power more efficiently. Which, in turn, means tighter loops, better wind penetration and more distance. Xi2 Series rods also feature new, lower profile, oversized guides and a round tip-top guide to reduce friction, as well as an improved, saltwater-safe reel seat. No matter which saltwater challenges you face from bonefish to billfish the Xi2 lets you concentrate on the fish instead of your casting. That’s fishability. Test cast the new Xi2. The Sage design team thinks you’ll see why they consider it the finest saltwater fly rod ever made.

Winston Boron II MX

Holy Smokes?!? "This can’t be a Winston rod," I remember thinking the first time I cast one. "Yes, it’s light- yes, it’s beautiful, but this thing flat out CASTS!!!" The 5 & 6 WTS can be described as faster action than you would expect from Winston, but still pretty darn sensitive in close. Great rods! The 7 WT really seems to quickly head off firmly into the realm a fast action rod land. The 8-10 WTS- They are REALLY REALLY powerful, fast fast rods. Don’t think pool cue stiff- think responsive, super fast yet sensitive. (All of these rods cast the Sharkskin lines, Rio Grand and GPX lines flawlessly!)

I’ll add what the fine folks at Winston had this to say shortly.

Deer Creek Series Spey Rods - $339.95

Deer Creek Series Spey Rods

Price:
$339.95

While some might argue that properly executed Spey casts are the highest form of fly casting, we would probably all agree that these casts are visually compelling, personally gratifying, and a wonderful way to present a fly to a fish. For a collective 65 years, two Pacific Northwest Spey casters, Mike Kinney and Bob Meiser have perfected this art and have shared their knowledge through guiding, teaching, and perhaps most importantly, by designing a new line of Spey rods, the Deer Creek series of two-handed rods. The Deek Creek Series rods have casting properties that marry perfectly with modern Spey lines. They have a unique progressive-regressive traditional action making them ideal for executing all types of Spey and Skagit casts. These blanks are a beautiful translucent dark amethyst color with fittings and components selected by Mike and Bob.

Scott S4 (Free Shipping) - $675.00

Scott S4

We are very impressed with this series of rods. Ultra-light in the hand, very quick and crisp action, extremely responsive when casting, very beautiful rods indeed - especially the burled wood. Down in Andros, the 8 wt quickly became a favorite flats rod of ours. Not too stiff when casting on calmer days, yet quick enough to power line into stiff wind when we needed that extra umph. It just felt right! The 6 through 8 weights we have been fishing cast the Sharkskin lines like greased lightning. Give these a whirl and you will understand what they mean by the term "line speed" and then you will be baffled by how much "feel" they impart for a quick rod. Really can be summed up by calling them a performance rod with a whole lot of feel and soul….

According to Scott, the new S4 series of fast action rods are exceptional in every way. Combine power with feel, the lightest physical weights with durability, sensitive tips with superb stability and accuracy, line speed with tippet protection, the finest components with top craftsmanship, and you start to get an idea what these rods are all about. The folks at Scott use three different high performance carbon fibers in S4 rods and each is laid up at a different angle. This means your S4 rods track true for greater accuracy, and smoothly transfer power from your cast to the line.

S4 rods feature REC Recoil nickel titanium snake guides, Fuji SiC Concept strippers in real titanium frames, REC custom reel seats with extra select California buckeye burl wood spacers.

Reel seats change to annodized aluminum in the 7wt and larger.

Add to all of that, Scott touches like measuring wraps and alignment dots, and you ve found the Ultimate Fishing Tool.

Highland Mills Original Series - $550.00

November 7th, 2008 | No Comments | Posted in Fly Fishing, Fly Rods





Highland Mills Original Series

Price:
$550.00

Long considered the perfect material for fly line, fly fishermen are rediscovering the virtues of bamboo. For some, the attraction lies in the aesthetic of fishing with a beautiful, natural material; for others, it is the hallowed tradition of rod-builders Leonard, Payne, Gillum and Garrison. All can appreciate the physical characteristics of bamboo, as it imparts just the right amount of energy to a fly line to propel it accurately toward its target, while still giving the caster time and opportunity to make subtle adjustments to their cast. A small dry fly will land softly and a fine tippet will survive the setting of the hook.

Highland Mills Rod Co. was born of an opportunity to bring to market a high quality, affordable line of bamboo fly rods in the tradition of Heddon, Wright & McGill and Phillipson bamboo rods.

These rods are built using traditional methods, contemporary technology and state-of-the-art adhesives and coatings.

-All rods are 2 piece, varnished with red wraps tipped in black.
-Ferrules, hook keepers and winding checks are nickel silver.
-3 and 4 weight rods are fitted with nickel silver slide band reel seat with a Walnut insert
-5 & 6 weight rods have an anodized screw lock reelseat with a walnut insert.
-Each rod is supplied with two tips, aluminum rod tube and poplin rod bag.

SPEY & 2 HANDED (Free Shipping)

Price:
$585.00

Wherever your quest for steelhead or salmon takes you, from the rumbling, glacial rivers of the Pacific Northwest to Quebec, Iceland or Russia, one fact is a constant: you will have to cover a lot of water. Sage’s two-handed rods are designed to make long casts and powerful mends easier and more efficient. In other words, you’ll spend more time fishing effectively and less time stripping line, false casting and snagging streamside brush. They also understand that long casts mean nothing without proper line control, which is why their two-handed rods are without equal when it comes to making precise mends in complex currents. And because you will probably make more than a few casts between fish-not that you’re counting-the light, lively feel of a Sage two-hander makes each cast and swing a pleasure. Once you try one of their traditional spey-action tapers or faster, European-style rods, you’ll wonder how you ever fished with a single-hander-or any other two-hander, for that matter.
