    NEW! ORVIS RECON 108-4 FLY ROD : 8WT, 10'0"

    The New Orvis Recon 108-4 fly rod is completely redesigned for 2020! Designed by the Orvis rod builders to be the perfect steelhead weight and length of this series. The 10'0" length provides anglers more rod to turn over heavier nymph rigs along with precise control on larger mends for the perfect drift. The 8wt 10'0' is also great for saltwater shore anglers as well, with the length to keep that backcast up off the beach. Big flies, big reach, big fish, and a price far below the performance, accuracy, and strength you will receive in return.

    Orvis Recon fly rods are each hand crafted in the USA with a completely new ferrule design, a matte blue blank with charcoal and light blue accents, and an anodized type iii solid aluminum reel seat. The New Recon uses the Helios 3 as a foundation, utilizing its construction techniques and performance attributes to refine and improve the new series. Increased hoop strength, better tracking, improved damping, and ultimately, significantly improved accuracy are now incorporated into the Recon that is also stronger, more impact resistant, and offers the mid-price buyer access to the best technology Orvis fly rods have to offer.

    FEATURES:

    • Blanks are matte blue with charcoal and light blue accent
    • Quick rod identifier on the blank
    • Pewter type III anodized aluminum solid aluminum reel seat with 1" Fighting Butt
    • Silver snake and stripping guides
    • Nylon covered rod tube
    • Backed by the Orvis 25-year guarantee
    • Hand crafted in the USA

    Beautiful rod. The cork is typical Orvis buttery smooth quality. I love the matt blue blank, subtle but very cool. This will be a rod I’ll dedicate to indicator fishing steelhead especially up in Michigan where the fish can get a bit bigger and the rivers are full of wood. I wanted a rod with a little more guts than my current 10 foot 7 wt but still have some good tippet protection and that is exactly what this rod will offer. Looking forward to the cold weather months to put it to use, I’ll leave a follow up review when I have some time to put it to work.

    Using it for steelheading and striper fishing - A top rod in it's price range and I feel it's strength was a key to buying it for big stripers!

    Great Lakes Steelhead will simply hook themselves with this rod's auto fish catching function. Simply lock in the reel, engage the patented Rosenbauer auto-fisher, and your shoulder will never be more sore. All joking aside - wonderful rod for smaller stream Erie trib steelhead or bass rod for the Niagara River or small ponds. You can really sling some hefty flies with this thing and the extra foot gives you some unbelievable range and accuracy. Pair up with a reel with good drag - you're gonna need it.
