The New Orvis Clearwater 3-Weight 10'0" Fly Rod is the perfect choice for euro nymph style fishing, high-sticking, mending line, and casting longer distances to deliver dry flies precisely on target. This Orvis Clearwater provides the delicacy and precision of a higher priced premium rod. When nymphing and longer distance dry fly fishing is required, the smooth medium action Clearwater 103-4 answers with all the performance, casting pleasure, and feel you would expect from an Orvis designed rod.
The new Clearwater Rod Series is not just a cosmetic facelift, but a complete overhaul from the ground up by our Vermont rod designers. Everything has changed except the value. It's still the best fly rod you can buy for the money, but with a significant upgrade in performance and looks in a comprehensive series that covers every angler from small stream addicts to Skagit slinging two-handers. Each rod was designed with a purpose-built profile and action to handle the kind of fishing the rod model would be traditionally used for, from medium-action small stream rods to medium-fast freshwater rods and fast-action big game rods.

10'0" 3-weight perfect for all nymphing and dry fly fishing styles

Used this rod reel packagestarting last summer. A Newby at euro nymphing. I don't think I got skunked the rest if the summer. Definitely worth the purchase. It opens up a whole new brand of fishing.

Good rod- casts a dry fly decently. I bought it for euro nymphing and works much better than a standard rod. It’s a good value.

The Orvis Clearwater rod's focus is Euro Nymphing and it does quite well with a tip that is pretty sensitive however if you run into a middle of hatch, it throws dries extremely well and accurately. The rod is a little heavy but for the price, along with its 25 year warranty it's a great value. ReelFlyRod shipping was fast and their customer service can't be beat!

Although I haven't used this rod in the river yet, I feel the rod is light weight, quick, and it must be useful for euro nymphing exactly. And I expect to use for dry fly as well. I'm totally satisfied with this rod including pricing.
