This outfit features the amazing Scott Wave fly rod, Redington Grande saltwater fly reel, RIO Elite Flats Pro premium fly line, dacron backing, SA Tapered Leader, and Scott aluminum rod tube and rod sock. All Scott Wave fly rod outfits are shipped professionally rigged and ready to fish...just tie on a fly!
The next wave of saltwater fly rod is here. The mid-priced Scott Wave fly rod was purposely designed for the angler wanting power, tight controlled loops in windy conditions, and turning over larger flies with precise accuracy in rod design. Perfect for the saltwater angler targeting bonefish to tarpon, the Scott Wave delivers performance, high line speeds, durability, and accuracy without the hefty price tag. However, not just for the saltwater angler, the Scott Wave will benefit freshwater anglers casting sinking lines, chasing carp, or hooking smallmouth with large wind-resistant flies, like deer hair poppers.
The Scott Wave 12wt is the preferred tarpon rod of this series. Chasing a 100lb plus tarpon requires a rod to present a fly with accruate precision. Second, a tarpon rod should act like a shock absorber with a softer tip section, but require the blank to be durable and long lasting. Finally the rod must have reserve power in the butt section to lift and land the tarpon quickly. The Scott Wave 12wt taper delivers all the necessary technology for anglers wanting to land a tarpon of a lifetime.
The intricate beauty of the Scott Wave is displayed by its stunning black anodized aluminum and blue woven carbon fiber reel seat with matching guide thread wraps up the blank. As with all Scott rods, the Scott Wave is handcrafted in Montrose, CO with top grade components like SiC stripping guides, custom machined reel seat, super grade corks and a beautiful natural, unsanded finish. Simply put, the Wave rods are the greatest performance value Scott has ever created.

REDINGTON GRANDE 11/12/13 FLY REEL : 11-13WT
Welcome the new heavyweight champion.
The Redington GRANDE Fly Reel is a fully anodized, machined aluminum reel that features our new sealed SUPER-TORQUE carbon drag system that will KO any fish you hook. After years of field testing, we bulked up the GRANDE with an oversized palming rim, increased backing capacity, and designed an easy to locate handle and drag knob so you can make quick adjustments in the heat of the battle. Never stand down from a fight, regardless of the opponent. The GRANDE 11/12/13 doesn’t measure the size of the fish, but how fast they swim and how fast it can stop it. Our pro-staff tested this on the flats of Florida for giant tarpon in the 120-150lb class and noted this reel performed flawlessly due to the drag system. Smooth and powerful!

RIO ELITE FLATS PRO FLY LINE
RIO's New Eilte Flats Pro saltwater fly line is designed for anglers hitting tropical flats in search of bonefish, permit and tarpon. The line is built on RIO's new DirectCore and Slickcast coating, a proprietary low-memory, low-stretch monofilament core that retains its stiffness in tropical heat, yet lies straight on the water without curl or retraction. The core, which has 30% less stretch than regular tropical saltwater fly lines, casts further, ensures solid strip sets, and shortens fight times. The Slickcast creates the slickest, most durable coating on the market-producing the least amount of friction ever measured on a fly line.
