TACTICAL SERIES FRESHWATER
STS 904/4
Our internal ferrules protect the light and smooth feel of this fly rod despite its high modulus materials and fast action taper. If you travel or backpack often, choose this model over the two-piece STS 904. Brian O'Keefe calls STS 904 "the best drift boat dry fly rod in the world." As a pure casting tool, this rod can't be beat. STS 904/4 is a super lightweight 4-weight that can cast and fish effectively from 20 to 75 feet. We specifically suggest this rod for windy conditions, drift boat fishing, float tubing, and fishing larger rivers where the angler requires a responsive fly rod to execute long, accurate dry fly casts without taking too many false casts. STS 904/4 is also a great general purpose dry fly rod for lake fishing.
