The 4wt 8'6" Wanted Edition Fly Rod is a high-performance, medium-fast action rod built to deliver exceptional feel, accuracy, and versatility—without the premium price tag. We believe a great fly rod shouldn’t break the bank, and we’ve spent years refining the balance, performance, and aesthetics of this rod to prove it. The result is a rod that looks incredible, feels effortless in hand, and confidently outperforms many fly rods costing $800 or more at your local fly shop.
Every detail has been thoughtfully engineered, from the hand-turned real burlwood reel seat insert to the custom-designed cork grip with signature accents. At the core of the rod, the blank received the same uncompromising attention. Using our next-level technology, we’ve optimized weight reduction, sensitivity, swing weight, and recovery speed to produce smooth loading, fast recovery, and consistent, accurate casts across a wide range of fishing situations.
At 8 feet 6 inches, this 4 weight hits the sweet spot between finesse and power. It excels on small to medium rivers, spring creeks, and still waters where control, mending ability, and presentation matter, but where a bit more backbone is welcome. The added power of a 4wt makes it especially effective in wind, with slightly larger flies, or when fishing heavier nymph rigs—without sacrificing touch or feel.
This rod is ideal for targeting trout of all species, including rainbow, brown, brook, and cutthroat trout, along with panfish such as bluegill and crappie. It’s also a great choice for grayling, smallmouth bass, and other light freshwater species. The 4wt provides enough authority to handle larger fish and small streamers while still protecting light tippets and making average-sized fish a blast to fight.
Whether you’re fishing dry flies, nymph rigs, soft hackles, or small streamers, the 4wt Wanted Edition Fly Rod delivers smooth power, refined control, and confidence-inspiring performance on every cast.
