The Orvis Clearwater 865-4 Fly Rod offers the iconic length and weight that many anglers consider to be the perfect trout fly rod. It offers a versatile length that's at home on large or small water, a line weight that allows for the enjoyment of small trout and yet can handle large trout and light bass with ease. If you're looking for a great performing all-purpose travel fly rod outfit for trout, look no further than the new Orvis Clearwater 865-6 Travel Fly Rod Outfit!
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.

ORVIS CLEARWATER II FLY REEL : 4-6WT
The Orvis Clearwater II Fly Reel may be the best reel in price and construction than any other reel on the market. Finally, a cast aluminum large arbor fly fishing reel that is lightweight enough to balance properly with your favorite fly rod and truly the best value fly reel around. Two years in design and development and with a powerful inline, Rulon to stainless, stacked disc drag that can hold its own with high-performance machined reels, the all new Clearwater Large Arbor costs significantly less than its machined cousins, but has not only the looks, but the guts of a higher-priced reel.
Easily converted to either left or right-hand retrieve, Clearwater fly reels have a positive click drag knob for consistent settings every time. Whether you're looking for your first large arbor, fishing on a budget, or want a spare or two in the bag, the new Clearwater Large Arbor can handle anything a machined reel can, and completely changes the game in die cast reels. Orvis Clearwater is a perfect choice for an affordable reel with a excellent drag system.
REEL FEATURES:
Attractive cast aluminum frame and spool
Large arbor for fast line retrieval
Powerful Rulon to stainless stacked disc drag system
Easily converted to either left or right-hand retrieve
Positive click drag knob for consistent settings every time
ORVIS CLEARWATER FLOATING FLY LINE
Orvis Clearwater WF floating fly lines are built a half-size heavier to provide extra help loading the rod, casting larger flies, and handling the wind. A compact head helps to transfer energy more efficiently, load the rod in close, throw tighter loops, and turn over flies. This is the perfect choice for the newer fly fisher or those anglers that don't mind making casting a little bit easier. Clearwater lines feature Integrated Slickness Technology to shoot line further and have a front welded loop for quick rigging changes.
LINE FEATURES:
Designed to make effortless casts and throw tight loops
Built a half-size heavy to help load the rod
Compact head turns over larger flies
Built with Integrated Slickness—a patented additive for reduced friction
First two flyrods. For both my wife and me. After weeks of R&D. Extremely nicely built rod. Choose a 5wt 8'6" rod as the first rod, and will be using it all over the Western NC.

I’m new to fly fishing and after lots of research bought this as my entry fly rod. I travel a lot for work and this packs down nicely. Over the past few months I’ve thrown a lot of different bugs with it and it’s handled them all. It’s an absolute blast to catch fish with. I could not be happier with my purchase especially with the great price from this company.
