Why Classic Trout

Everything Trout

Designed for the trout angler, Classic Trout's moderate action provides the delicacy needed for technical spring creeks, yet packs enough power for big river and boat fishing.

  • Timeless Tempo

    Whether it's intimate creek delicacy or sprawling tailwater stamina, Classic Trout's medium-fast action presents drys accurately and delicately, but still has enough guts for nymphs, buggers and indicators when conditions call for it.

  • Approachable Action

    Classic Trout's lightweight blank and forgiving action reduces fatigue for long days on the water.
