Description
We look at our fly rods the way many people look at cars. Everyone looks great driving a hotrod, but a professional can push it to experience its full potential. Sporting custom finishes, tough-as-nails materials, and unparalleled accuracy, we consider the 2-piece Warm Springs our highest-performing hotrod.
Our 5wt lives in the drift boat, always ready to get out for a day of fly fishing on the Missouri. With a Toray carbon fiber backbone interrupted by just one ferrule, you’ll feel confident using this rod’s smooth medium-fast action for short casts, long, line-shooting casts, and everything in between—perfect for challenging the diverse conditions you’ll meet in western rivers.
A comfortable AAA+ quality cork grip, stainless steel snake guides, and a CNC-machined aluminum reel seat give the Warm Springs a classy finish while also ensuring it’s ready to face anything mother nature might throw your way.

Craig Fly Rod
It’d be great if we could talk Mother Nature into blue skies and windless days every time we wanted to hit the river. Unfortunately for us, she rarely cooperates. Whether it’s rainclouds over a high mountain lake or blistering heat in the open plains, we’ve all had to brave the elements for the love of fly fishing—and our rods are no different. The Craig fly rod, like all Montana Casting Co. rods, was designed with harsh conditions in mind.
Dearborn Fly Rod
We put performance first in all our fly fishing gear—that’s why the Dearborn fly rod combines a high-octane fast action and, woven carbon composition to help you achieve precision casting in the toughest conditions. Learn more about how we’ve applied all the Montanan grit, experience, and values at our disposal to bring you fly rods that will out-fish your expectations at every cast.
Warm Springs Fly Rod
The Warm Springs is our flagship fly fishing rod. We poured every ounce of our collective craftsmanship and fly fishing know-how into its design because we believe a fly rod is more than the sum of its parts. It’s your tool. It’s your connection to the river and every memory you make on the water.
