A classic returns! We updated these small-stream icons but kept the delicacy and FUN that made the originals favorites.
Half a century ago, we developed the first series of Orvis Graphite Fly Rods—some of the first graphite rods available to anglers. A subset of these innovative rods were less than 8’ long and ranged from 1 to 5 wt. These classics were prized for their soft feel and small-stream fishability. The individual rod names are the stuff of legend...The One-Weight, The Ultrafine, The Tippet, The Seven/Eleven, The Far & Fine.
Our newly redesigned series of Superfine® Graphite Fly Rods is based on these classic Orvis line and length models. Designed with Helios™ construction techniques, they recover well and track beautifully to improve performance and accuracy. This Superfine series offers anglers new, modern versions that keep the focus on small-stream presentation and tippet protection. We also kept the legendary names, engraving each on the butt cap.
Each four-piece rod has a matte gray blank with a shallow taper, a black anodized aluminum uplocking reel seat, hard chrome snake guides, chrome stripping guides, and a cigar-style cork grip. Includes cloth-covered rod tube and printed rod sock.
