The Drift Rod is designed to be light in overall weight, fast damping and well balanced. To accomplish this we used a mixture of our highest modulus carbon fiber along with a down-locking reel seat and removable weighted fighting butt. You can further fine-tune balance with 3/8th inch ID washers depending on the weight of your reel. The tip is ultra-sensitive allowing one to distinguish between a subtle take and a bottom tick with a soft-tipped action that protects the very light tippets often needed to sustain a drift and remain invisible to a selective trout.

The versatility of this rod will amaze as it can be fished as a traditional 9' 4 piece 3 weight, add a 1' section to make it a 10' rod, a 27 inch section to make it an 11' 3 inch rod, or add both conversion sections for a length of 12' 3 inches. So from traditional 3 weight lines to the tight line nymphing techniques including French, Czech and Polish styles, you'll make the leader only tuck casts with accuracy and ease at any rod length. Finally, we included a 3 inch lower cork grip that replaces the weighted fighting butt perfect for the new micro spey lines and techniques just pick the optimal length for the environment and application.

Testimonials

Hands down best fly shop I have been to!

Very knowledgeable and extremely helpful, super friendly and great variety of product.

Brett Johnson

Excellent shop!

They've got anything you could need. It's a huge selection, which is surprising for a small town shop. They're amazing people and Collin can answer any questions you have. His knowledge is impressive.

Incredible preparation & professionalism

I recently spent a weekend with a close group of friends fly fishing along with Colin and team - incredible preparation & professionalism, quality camp equipment and fishing gear and just a first class operation overall. I would and highly recommend RMFS to any and all fishing skill levels interested in enjoying themselves on the water. It was a really positive experience for our group.

The prices are fair and shipping is lighting fast

Congrats to Colin and Tammy on the move to their new location in downtown Olds! The prices are fair, they have a great selection and the shipping is lighting fast. Best sticker offerings I have seen south of Red Deer as a kicker.

I had a fabulous lesson with Jordan from Rocky Mountain Fly Shop

I had a fabulous lesson with Jordan from Rocky Mountain Fly Shop. We went out on the water and he tailored the lesson to my experience and skill level. We touched on casting, fly selection and an introduction to reading water. It was all hands on and I walked away with the confidence to try new things this summer. It was a perfect morning and I'll definitely do it again.
