Scott G-844/5

For 18 years, this has been our most popular backpacking rod. A 4-weight is perfect for most high country fishing, and the 8' 4" length offers excellent casting range for lakes without becoming too cumbersome on tight streams. This rod demonstrates the virtues of the internal ferrule. Despite having four ferrule joints for five pieces, the G 844/5 is one of our smoothest and lightest feeling fly rods. Best of all, it packs into a 23" case! This rod travels so well that you'll find yourself bringing it on every fishing trip, even if it's your backup rod.
