Description
Consider the Warm Springs fly fishing rod our hotrod! Affectionately nicknamed “Old Blue”, the Warm Springs is the Montana Casting Co. top-shelf fly rod—smooth, reliable, and tough. This 9 ft fly fishing rod is made with Montana Casting Co.'s own Toray carbon fiber high-modulus rod blank, offering unparalleled line control and durability.
Delicate enough to land dries. Powerful enough to drive heavy nymph rigs or streamers through the wind. Whatever you’re fishing, the Warm Springs’ smooth, medium-fast action will do the heavy lifting for you so you can focus on landing the perfect presentation. Though designed for use in freshwater environments, it is just as suitable for saltwater fishing.
All of our fly rods come with a rod sock and rod/reel combo case.
