Orvis Recon 5WT 10'

Orvis Recon 105

10' 5 weight, 4 piece fly rod

Whether swinging streamers across and down, extending drifts near the banks from a moving drift boat, or tracking a nymph rig a few feet further in the zone, the Recon 5-Weight 10' 4-Piece Fly Rod gives you the ability to cover more water, extend your fly's time in the zone, and has the power to handle big trout, bass, and light steelhead. A 5-weight rod is the freshwater sweet spot in line weight versatility, and this one offers superior value in a mid-priced option with versatility and premium performance built in. Helios™3 is the benefactor behind the new Recon, utilizing its construction techniques and performance attributes to refine and improve the new series. Increased hoop strength, better tracking, improved damping, and ultimately, significantly improved accuracy are now incorporated into the Recon that is also stronger, more impact resistant, and offers the mid-price buyer access to the best technology Orvis fly rods have to offer

Recon is the rod designed for the anglers who chase blue lines on topo maps and spend their nights bent over maps, plotting the next day’s adventures. For those who manage riverside meals of granola bars and jerky paired with the evening hatch instead of a sit-down meal at a sane hour. For anglers who would rather spend the day in the front of a skiff than behind a desk, we’ve created a rod ready to work as hard as you do in the pursuit of fish. Recon teams high-performance feel with lightness in hand. With close-in loading ability and the power for longer reach, the rods feature a modern shadow green blank and covert black nickel hardware.
