ARC STEELHEAD & SALMON
ARC 957/4
The ARC 957/4 is perhaps our most popular Alaska rod. An extra six inches gives this rod additional versatility for fishing large rivers for rainbows, steelhead and salmon. ARC 957/4 is an excellent dry line steelhead rod, because it roll casts, mends line, and helps steer your fly through long drifts. If you generally use sinking lines, we suggest an 8 or 9 weight, but for dry line summer fish, this is a well balanced fishing tool.
