The Essential Fly

Fly Rods

   

Vast Range Of Fly Rods

Here you will find a vast range of rods from the stunning 2 weight River and Stream to large stillwater rods. Single or double handed salmon rods, switch rods and alternatives for every venue from saltwater to reservoir, brook to spate river, small stillwater to a rod for that mighty tarpon. With Greys, Vision, Wychwood rods here you have a range suitable for every budget and occasion. We ship all over the UK and worldwide.

 

What fly fishing rod do you need to use? It depends upon the occasion, species targetted and the venue. A small brook trout needs a very different fly rod to a large salmon on spate waters when you need to cast large and heavy tube flies and want a heavy duty double handed fly rod. If you need assistance then please telephone.
