The Deal
This is a package deal for an amazing rod, reel, line, and backing that work great together at a discounted price. In this package we've included an Outlaw Rogue Edition 5wt 8' Fly Rod, a Qualifly Maverick Fly Reel, Pure Drift Floating Fly Line, and backing. Everything needed to get you going and out there catching fish.
The Rod
The 5wt 8' Rogue Edition Fly Rod is a high-performance fiberglass rod with a smooth slow-to-medium action, designed to outperform the competition—without the premium price tag. We believe a great fly rod shouldn’t cost a fortune, which is why we’ve spent years refining the look, feel, and performance of this model. The result is a rod that rivals (and often surpasses) $800+ fly rods on today’s market at a fraction of the cost.
From the hand-turned burlwood reel seat insert to the custom-designed cork grip with premium accents, every detail reflects top-tier craftsmanship. Most importantly, the rod blank itself is built from our proprietary fiberglass blend, engineered to deliver exceptional casting accuracy and smooth, controlled performance.
This custom fiberglass construction provides a full-flex profile that excels in dry fly presentations and situations where delicacy and precision matter most. Compared to carbon fiber or graphite, fiberglass offers a smoother, more forgiving feel with a deeper flex—making it both tough and incredibly enjoyable to cast.
The 5wt 8ft configuration is ideal for small trout, panfish, and other light freshwater species. Its shorter length makes it perfect for tight quarters—small creeks, brush-lined rivers, and overgrown banks where a standard 9-foot rod can feel cumbersome.
Versatile and responsive, this rod performs beautifully across a range of techniques including nymphing, bow-and-arrow casts, dapping, high-sticking, and more.
If you’re looking for premium performance, classic fiberglass feel, and unmatched value, the Rogue Edition delivers.
The Reel
The Maverick doesn't fit the mold when is comes to standard fly reel design. It utilizes a semi-frame design to reduce weight and give full exposure to both front and back spool rims. The drag adjustment knob is located inside the frame and can be easily adjusted from the back. This placement of the drag knob shifts the center of gravity to the center of the reel making it perfectly balanced. The reel is fully machined from high quality bar stock (not a brittle casting) and assembled with sealed bearings for the smoothest operation. This frame doesn’t just look good. The contoured back surfaces and the X design combine to make Maverick’s frame very rigid. The spool rims have been designed with a larger cross section to increase strength and make it easier to palm and apply additional drag when needed. The double carbon disc sealed drag requires virtually no start-up inertia. Sealed and saltwater friendly. Can be converted to right or left hand retrieve.
Choose from a black or an green color at checkout.
The Line
Pure Drift Fly Line is built for days on the water. This line delivers smooth casts, clean presentations, and reliable floatation from first light to last casts. Designed to load rods easily and track true, it's a dependable choice for anglers who want great performance without compromise.
