Introducing the New Series of Two Handed Rods
The new Roaring River Series are designed for the three primary casting techniques used throughout the world: traditional, Skagit & Scandinavian.
Roaring River Greased Line - to address the traditional style of two-hand casting, our field experts have helped to define the RoaringRiver Greased Line Rods: 9 rods ranging from a 14' #8/9 wt to a 17' #10/11 wt. Designed to cast long belly floating lines using a long casting stroke, this traditional form of spey casting maintains a fixed line of 65 to 100 feet. They allow you to cover water without retrieving or lengthening line on each cast, keeping you less tired and more focused on the prize. These powerful designs use the full bend of the rod, flexing through the mid-section when fully loaded.
Greased Line GLX - is crafted with our proprietary GLX graphite along with the finest rod components available today. Featuring Hopkins & Holloway guides & exquisitely crafted Portuguese cork handles, fitted with a special composite cork end-cap & fore-grip. Our exclusive offset-oval sculptured barrel reel seat, each with an ivory style insert engraved with a fly graphic.
Greased line Deveron - a special graphite lend needed for the optimum actions to cast long belly lines using methods as traditional as the Deberon River itself. Featuring premium Hopkins & Holloway components & beautiful Portuguese cork handles.
Roaring River Dredger - when you get down fast in swift, deep drifts, the new Roaring River Dredger will comfortably manage the sinking tips & weighted flies needed for Skagit style casting. The 7 models, ranging from 12'9" #6/7 to 14' #9/10, are designed to throw short to medium belly 38 to 62 ft. lines using the balanced medium casting stroke, refined over time by the northwest steelhead fishermen. Requiring less back cast space than traditional casting, this series of rods provide excellent distance with some shoot to the cast.
Dredger GLX - this is the top of the Dredger line, featuring our proprietary GLX graphite along with the finest rod components available today. With nickel titanium recoil guides by REC these cast as slick as they look. Exquisitely crafted Portuguese cork handles with a special composite cork end-cap & fore-grip are fitted to our exclusive offset-oval sculptured barrel real seat, each with an ivory style insert engraved with a fly graphic.
Dredger Kispiox - for a balanced medium casting stroke, this special graphite blend is tailored to the exact specifications needed to perform Skagit sytle casts. With Hopkins & Holloway components & beautiful Portuguese cork handles, the Kispiox rods are as beautiful & powerful as the river they're named after.
Roaring River Stinger - for the needs of the Scandinavian style of casting, we offer the RoaringRiver Stinger series. With 8 rods, ranging from 12'6" to 15', these rods were designed to optimally cast floating or intermediate shooting heads of 33 - 46'. This is the most recent development in 2 hand casting, a much faster, shorter stroke using the lower hand (underhand casting). These rods help you generate high line speed & give you great shooting distance casts. With a fast action taper, these rods let you make overhead false casts, generating the highest line speed possible. That's assuming you have sufficient room for back casting, such as gravel bar or ocean beaches.
Stinger GLX - at first glance you'll notice the nickel titanium recoil guides by REC, which are different both in looks & function. Weighing about as much as one individual traditional guide, the total weight of the rod is noticeably lighter. They're also flexible, making a mistake like catching a tree branch, nothing but a slight hang up. Exquisitely crafted Portuguese cork handles with a special composite cork end-cap & fore-grip fitted to our exclusive offset-oval sculptured barrel real seat, each with an ivory style insert engraved with a fly graphic. All on a blank featuring our proprietary GLX graphite tapered to the exact standards of Skandinavian style casting.
Stinger Alta - these rods help you generate very high line speed thanks to a special graphite blend formulated for a fast action. With premium Hopkins & Holloway components & beautiful Portuguese cork handles, the Alta offers everything you could want for Scandinavian style casting.
