Friday Product Review -Scott S4

S4 rods are the choice for high performance freshwater fishing. Need to nymph in the morning, fish a hatch midday with dries, then finish off with streamers in the deep pools at last light? This is the rod for the job.

The S4 handles a wide range of fly sizes with plenty of power and line speed, balanced with enough sensitivity to fish the small bugs on light tippet.

S4 rods feature components like titanium guides and buckeye burl wood, paired with Scott touches like alignment dots and measuring wraps that add up to the world's best freshwater fly rods.

This particular rod I have been casting in several different weights throughout the summer. The four weight is a wicked little rod that will pitch line on demand with streamers or gently lay down small dries anywhere you want it.  The six weight has a strong backbone and is a rocket in the hand. These are very light and handy rods that would make a full day on the water seem effortless. We carry several weights in the shop and also have them available online at http://www.wdflyfishing.com/flyFishingStore.html. Made in the U.S.A just south of us in Colorado.
