Cutthroat Trout Caught Fly Fishing in a High Mountain Lake

Backpacking Fly Rods

Backpacking fly rods: lightweight, durable, adventure-ready.

 

If you’re trail-bound, you need a fly rod tough enough to endure the strains and stressors of a backcountry setting but light and packable enough to fit into your backpack. The Craig Fly Fishing Rod and Lite 406 Fly Fishing Reel are designed to be a trail-ready combo in your fly rod arsenal.

 

Both the Dearborn and Warm Springs come in powerful, packable 4-piece models as well. Grab a 4-weight or 5-weight rod in any of our models and add a 4/6 weight Lite 406 or Envy 406 reel, and you'll have a great rod-reel combo, ready for backpacking. Montana Casting Co.'s rods are designed to withstand a lifetime of bruises, batterings, and backcountry adventures.
