RoaringRiver Greased Line Spey Rod (Traditional Style)
Jock Scott over a century ago wrote of Greased Line fishing as performed by A.H.E. Wood to present a fly broadside to Salmon to entice the salmon to strike. This TRADITIONAL form of spey casting maintains a relatively fixed line length of 65-100 feet allowing you to cover water without retrieving or lengthening line on each cast; keeping you less tired and more focused on your prize. These powerful designs use the full bend of the rod, flexing through the mid-section when fully loaded. The ROARINGRIVER GREASED LINE SERIES of two-hand rods offer the ultimate combination of power and grace in a rod and provide you perfect swing speed and fly control. For spey casts from 50 to 150' the RoaringRiver Greased Line two-hand rod series will truly allow you to fish the water "Fine and Far off."
To address the TRADITIONAL style of two-hand casting, our field experts have helped to define the ROARINGRIVER GREASED LINE RODS; nine 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 - The Greased Line GLX is crafted with our proprietary GLX grapite along with the finest for components available today. Featuring Hopkins and Halloway guides and exquisitely crafted Portuguese cork handles, fitted with a special composite core end-cap and 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 blend needed for the optimum actions to cast long belly lines using methods as traditional as the Deveron River itself. Featuring premium Hopkins and Holloway components and beautiful Portuguese cork handles.

RoaringRiver Dredger Spey Rods (Skagit Style)
The term "SKAGIT CASTING" was coined in the early 1990's to describe on offshoot system of spey casting being used at the time by steelheaders in the Skagit River area. It was mostly characterized by its relatively short shootinghead lines. However in its original context, the term skagit casting described a method of casting that exercised one particular premise to accomlish its casts- the sustained anchor concept. This works off the principles of rod loading that are the opposite of contacts spey casting. sustained anchor casting uses the " unsticking" of a thoroughly "stuck" flyline from the river's surface as the mechanism for creating casting energy. Allowing you to change the direction of the cast and providing the primary mechanism for loading the rod, the casts that work best with this concept are the Circle Spey, Snap T. The Perry Poke and Skagit style Doublespey.
The ROARINGRIVER DREDGER SERIES is designed with a moderate/fast taper and softer action to balance the medium stroke required to cast short to medium belly lines used for these techniques, from the light 12'9", #6/7GLX, to the powerful 14', #9/10.
When you need to get down fast in swift, deep drifts, the new ROARINGRIVER DREDGER will comfortably manage the sinking tips and weighted flies needed for SKAGIT style casting. The seven 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. Exqisitely crafted Portuguese cork handles with a special composite cork end-cap and 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 belnd is tailored to the exact specifications needed to perform Skagit style casts. With Hopkins and Holloway components and beautiful Portuguse cork handles, the Kispiox rods are as beautiful and as powerful as the river they're named after.

RoaringRiver Stinger Spey rods (Scandinavian Style)
So what's the big deal about the way we SCANDINAVIANS get our Spey cast out there? Since its beginnings in the 1960's, Scandinavian influence from top tournament casters and fishermen, schooled on famous Salmon/Seatrout rivers of Sweden and the west coast of Norway, have played a mojor role in the development of our highly versatile style. Our style provides tremendous distance, depth and presentation control, all with minimal effort. We use a looped Shooting Head line, available in differing densities, ranging in length from 34 to 42 feet depending on rod length along with thin diameter shooting line. Teamwork from a fast butt hand stroke and relative short uper hand stroke, ( overall about half the movement of traditional style casting ), a sudden stop to unload, forms narrow loops that can slice bread. These very narrow loops help make very long casts turn right over. This style cast is most effective with faster taper, yet very light rods. Enter G.Loomis STINGER SERIES two-hand rods. These rods have just the right action, a powerful butt transitioning smoothly to a fast tip that will deliver the razor loops characteristic of the Scandinavian method of spey casting. Our style will keep you on the water longer, a smile on your face, and without a case of the "jelly arms."
For the needs of the SCANDINAVIAN style of casting, we offer the ROARINGRIVER STINGER series. With eight rods, ranging from 12'6" to 15', these rods were designed to optimally cast floating or intermediate shooting heads of 33 to 46 ft. This is the most recent development in two-hand casting, a much faster, shorter stroke using the lower hand (underhand casting). These rods help you generate high line speed and 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 and function. Weighing about as much as one individual traditional guide, the total weight of the rod is noticably 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 and fore-grip fitted to our exclusive offset-oval sculptured our proprietary GLX graphite tapered to the exact standards of Skandinavian style casting.
STINGER ALTA - These tods help you generate very high line speed thanks to a special graphite blend forulated for a fast action. With premium Hopkins and Halloway components and beautiful Portuguese cork handles, the Alta offers everything you could want for Scandinavian style casting.

Cross Current Saltwater Fly
Its the age-old formula... find the moving water and find the fish. Tides and currents - they're the keys to saltwater flyfishing. Where current meets still water or dissimilar currents converge, edges are created and the bait is trapped. It s these edges that flyfishers seek... the "crosscurrents" where fish and fly meet!
Saltwater flyfishing is a passion - it's advantage fish, not angler. A fanatical pursuit with zeal fueled by the degree of difficulty required to reach the ultimate goal. It's fast fish and skinny water for some... big fish and blue water for others. Sometimes it's finesse and long leaders, but most of the time it's brute strength and power! Creating fly rods for such a demanding fishery requires a lot of dreaming and a lot of fishing. The final result is the most advanced and uniquely different series of fly rods ever. Messrs. Pallot, Wejebe, Rajeff and Loomis and a cast of hundreds shared their angling and casting expertise to help us create our new "CrossCurrent" saltwater fly rods.

Classic Fly Rods
Steelhead and salmon may well be the very reason G.Loomis exists. We're positive it's why Gary Loomis exists. It was his pursuit for the ultimate ultra-light steelhead rods that started a line-up of amazing fly rods for every fishing application. Some rods stood out from the rest and remained the favorites for literally millions of anglers worldwide. We're proud to call these two-piece rods, THE CLASSICS.
As we journey into the future we can forget all the memorable days on the water, the world records that amaze us all, or maybe the feeling of that one special cast. That's why we celebrate these Classics. They're the best of the best. No chances at all, just the technology advanced TWO-PIECE RODS designed by Gary Loomis and Steve Rajeff, that have gained favor and loyalty over the past twenty years.
You already know about the advantages of GLX, with its unique "lighter than air" balance, the subtle power, the castability and immediate response. Factor in the high line speeds, unbelievably tight loops and superior fish fighting power, these rods are the edge of the envelope for both performance and technology.
GL3 rods on the other hand, offer the ultimate in light weight and forgiveness as well as a great value. If you're looking for a rod that will help you improve your casting stroke and amaze you with its ability to handle fish, you'll find nothing quite like GL3.

What explains the growth in the number of anglers picking up two-handed rods? Big fish, easier to catch. A two-handed rod (also known as a Spey Rod) will cast where there’s little room for a proper backcast, into distant seams where a drag-free drift would beimpossible with a regular rod. Not surprisingly, big fish find these lies appealing, safe from predators including the average angler. Advances in rod and line technologies have evolved hand in glove with technique to make casting a properly designed two-handed rod a whole lot easier than it was just a few years ago.

We Built Our First Rod When
Lincoln Was Just a Whig.
Perhaps no other piece of sporting equipment invokes such reverence for tradition as the split-cane rod. Orvis has been building cane rods for well over a century, and is responsible for some of the most important innovations in their design and construction. The resulting heirlooms have surprising power with consummate grace and a bit of passionate charm. In the overwhelming techno-wilderness of the early twenty first century, the Orvis bamboo rod represents a lasting bastion of workbench craftsmanship.

We’re especially proud of the Caras®. Just in the short time we've been building Caras, they have become the new standard in quality specialty rods. They are lighter, stronger, and more sensitive than anything out there. But best of all, like all Falcons, they have the right actions to make you a better angler.
Fenwick’s tradition of technology continues to meet the specialized needs of avid anglers. Modern fishermen are no longer generalists, but specialists. They are bass fisherman, walleye fisherman, fly fisherman or saltwater fisherman who identify themselves by a specific technique or species. In response, Fenwick’s tradition of technology continues to drive its designers, engineers and pro staffers to develop sophisticated fishing rods specifically designed for different angling specialties. It’s why for nearly half a century Fenwick rods have been known, and will always be known, in Phil Clock’s words, “as the most thought-out fishing rods in the world.”

Legend Elite Fly
Fish are not poker chips. They are fish. Living, breathing silvery bundles of electricity. Sometimes they bless us with a bolt of this energy through a fly line. We are lucky. Heck, we’re lucky just to be standing in water instead of a subway terminal. Luckier still when we’re armed with a St. Croix Legend Elite® fly rod. Premium, high-modulus, high-strain SCV graphite blanks with carbon-matte scrim, outfitted with top-shelf components and featuring St. Croix’s stunning slim-profile ferrule technology. These rods offer cannon-like casting with amazing feel. If you still insist on counting something, make it blessings.
Legend Ultra
Let no one question your profound connection to nature. In the Good Book it talks about man’s “dominion over the fish in the sea.” Fish returning from the sea is certainly implied. For this express purpose we suggest a St. Croix Legend Ultra® fly rod. The Legend Ultra’s award-winning design in high-modulus SCIV graphite with ART™ and IPC® technology is graced with slim-profile ferrules and top-shelf components. These are the rods we completely redesigned and upgraded a couple years ago while keeping the price a welcome reminder of a bygone era. No wonder they are St. Croix’s most popular fly rods.
Avid Series
There’s also a time to get your hands on one of the new, completely redesigned Avid Series® fly rods. That time is now. Featuring our exclusive IPC® technology and slim-profile ferrules all cloaked in a sultry canteen green pearl, these new rods are nothing short of classically elegant. Versatile, with a new and improved smoother action, the new Avids load smoothly and progressively down the blank for a crisp casting stroke and a measure of feel typically reserved for rods twice the price. With models covering everything from spring creek surgery to casting for stripers from the beach, these are great rods to enable passionate fishermen to build a comprehensive quiver. A quiver replete with a gorgeous new selection of spey rods we might add.
Reign
Our time on this planet is finite. There are only so many hours in the day. So many weekends in the year. Only so many years we’re focused enough to fish even the smallest windows of time. Only so many chances to fish one of the new St. Croix Reign™ fly rods. Built from our premium SCII graphite, these new rods offer a forgiving casting stroke at an equally forgiving price. With a buttery smooth, versatile action and an amazing degree of feel these rods will appeal to savvy freestone veterans as much as fly rod newcomers. In other words, everyone hoping to milk a little more out of their day.
Premier
One thing is for sure – if your place of employment is within a moderate double-haul of some fishy water your midday repast is no leisurely experience. On such a tight time frame, you take a guess at which fly will work, tie it on and give ’er a go. Guess wrong – fish wins. Guess right – yippie. Minutes later you quickly pack up your St. Croix Premier® rod and get back while the rest of the guys are still wiping mustard off their shirts. Built from the same SCII graphite as our Reign™ series, but with more modest components, the Premier series offers a smooth moderate-fast action especially forgiving to beginners.

Synchrotech
A combination of top quality lightweight materials, foolproof designs, and sensible features, the Syncrotechs stack up against the finest reels on the market, and at a lighter weight. Each Syncrotech spool is machined from a solid bar of aerospace grade 6061 t-6 aluminum for the ultimate in strength and light weight. Then we polish and anodize each reel to a mirror finish that's as beautiful as it is bulletproof. Every reel features fully-machined components and corrosion - resistant, sealed stainless steel bearings and hardware. And the three largest models boast a special anti-corrosion coating on key eternal parts for the ultimate in saltwater protection. Each model is simple to switch from right to left retrieve. Each feature a palming rim for hands-on drag control. And each comes with a durable 3mm neoprene case for protection while both on the rod and off.
Venture
In the old days, even the finest fly anglers thought of their reels as little more than a line holder. Not to say they didn't appreciate the craftsmanship of a finely machined fly reel, they just felt the skills for fighting fish on a fly rod were with the fisherman, not the workings of a reel. Their main requirement of a reel was simplicity. They would appreciate our new Venture reels. A quality reel at a bewildering price, each Venture reel is a sturdy, cast aluminum vision of beauty and simplicity. Featuring a wide-range adjustable disc drag, quick release spool, and a rich, champagne gold anodized finish, the Venture reels are available in three sizes: #3, #5 and #7. They all come with a padded case because, even though they don't cost a king salmon's ransom, you'd hate for them to get treated poorly.
Eastfork
Failure is not something we take lightly on a reel's drag system, or any other part for that matter. When we set out to create the new EastFork reels we started with no preconceptions. We had no set manufacturing technique, no preexisting components and no vision of the final product. What came out of it is performance, and at under $200, performance you'd expect to get from a reel costing twice as much. With the new EastFork reels you won't have to loosen the drag to save your tippet, or crank down to prevent a large fish from spooling you. All three models are equipped with very strong, smooth and sensitive drags that transition from a delicate, friction-free startup, to controlled strength at any setting. This is accomplished with a proprietary drag material that will allow you to look forward to an eternity of reliable, and enjoyable, hours on the water. Forged? Machined? How about both? We combined the best of each world to accomplish a stable, intricately detailed marriage between spool and body. They're lightweight, very strong and hassle free. A push button spool allows quick extraction if needed, and switching left to right is accomplished with a simple O-ring design. The richly finished color, and a beautifully detailed wooden handle compliment all rods, especially all the new G. Loomis models, making these as nice to look at as they are to fish.

Vortex VO2 Disc Drag Fly Reel
Fly Fishing Reels For Big Fish
Our Vortex Fly Fishing Reel has more fish stopping disc drag surface than any fly reel made. The Vortex VO2 fly reel is designed, inside and out, to be the most reliable big fish reel on the market. The VO2 fly reel performance advantages arise from the placement of drag surfaces on the reel’s outside radius, maximizing surface area. The VO2 fly reel has a huge composite cork-to-Rulon® drag surface which enables it to dissipate the heat generated by a hard-running fish more so than any other drag system. Hot materials expand and change your drag tension just at the time when you need consistency the most. With the VO2 fly reel in hand, your drag setting will remain consistent throughout the battle. And a larger drag surface ensures consistent fly reel performance over a wide range of settings. Each indexed stop increases or decreases drag pressure in predictable and precise increments. When it comes to landing the fish of a lifetime, you can make no better choice than the Orvis Vortex VO2 fly fishing reel.

There are a lot of fly reel manufacturers in the market today; however there are no other fly reel manufacturers like Ross Reels USA. We lead the industry in quality, innovation and customer support. As a result, our products have been awarded more industry awards than any other fly tackle manufacturer in the world! Back to Top

The Evolution is a high-end hybrid large arbor fly reel that is a machining masterpiece. The first time you pick up the Evolution you will know right away that this reel defines perfection - in every way. This series was designed for those anglers who equally appreciate both art and function. The cosmetic innovation and precision workmanship of this series is only surpassed by the Evolution's drag system which is precise and sensitive - capable of protecting the lightest tippets even when battling world-class fish. To guarantee the level of dependability consumers have come to expect from Ross products, we have modeled the Evolution's drag system after the highly successful Big Game series. The spoke designed frame and extensively ventilated spool make this series incredibly lightweight, yet the Evolution is built to endure a lifetime of flawless performance. Each reel in this series is designed with a specific diameter and width to maximize the properties of drag consistency and line retrieval. The Evolution series is truly art in motion, and will satisfy the demands of the most discriminating angler.
The CLA is an affordable hybrid large arbor fly reel that carries the name of one of Ross' oldest and most popular series. However the CLA is a big departure from the original Cimarron design. It incorporates our newest generation drag mechanism that is extraordinarily smooth, heat resistant and provides incredible stopping power. The CLA matches the Cimarron in durability and affordable price, but offers a stronger drag, greater drag range and sensitivity, more pleasant incoming and outgoing sound, hybrid large arbor configuration, innovative conversion mechanism and other additional features that anglers have come to expect with modern fly reel design. Each reel in this series is designed with a specific diameter and width to maximize the properties of drag consistency and line retrieval. The CLA will set a new standard for what anglers come to expect from an American made, high-quality, reasonably priced fly reel.

The Rhythm is a mid-priced hybrid large arbor fly reel that is built around the Evolution series drag platform, but has a thickset build with reduced machining and ventilation. The Rhythm drag system is precise and sensitive - capable of protecting the lightest tippets even when battling world-class fish. The Rhythm series was designed to balance with today's modern rods. It is lightweight, yet built sturdy enough to take the abuse of hardcore angling. Each reel in this series is designed with a specific diameter and width to maximize the properties of drag consistency and line retrieval. The Rhythm series is perfect for those anglers who are equally concerned about impeccable drag performance, gear aesthetics and rugged durability.

The Cimarron is a conventional width fly reel that has been part of the Ross USA product line for more than fifteen years. This award-winning series is the best value in our USA line. Cimarron reels are also the top choice for guides and outfitters because they are affordably priced, never wear out and never fail - you won't find a better value on the market today. Incorporating features that are only available on higher priced reels, the Cimarron has become one of the most popular fly reels in the world. For those anglers that prefer conventional spool widths and "old school" design, there is no better choice than a Cimarron!
The Big Game series is a mid-priced large arbor fly reel that is specifically designed to battle big fish. With 6 square inches of effective drag surface, and 13.5 pounds of dead lift weight, the Big Game series has three times the effective drag of every cork drag reel tested. Put simply, the BG series is the strongest fly fishing reel on the market today; and it costs considerably less than most competitive brands. A quadruple redundancy drag system ensures dependability under the most demanding fishing conditions. By adding in features like titanium drag components, water shedding grooves on palming rim, a large, easily adjusted drag knob, you end up with the ultimate big game fly fishing reel; and you won't have to mortgage your home to own one. With a wide range of sizes available, the BG series is appropriate for any fishing application, including Spey.

The list of things that can enter an otherwise normal life and monopolize every thought, consume every moment and lead far past the threshold of obsession, is most assuredly a list topped by fly fishing. Old-time string band music comes close, but not quite. As you peruse the following pages, keep one thing in mind – the way things are going, anything this much fun will be illegal soon. Any new rod purchase should be made post haste.

Legend® Fly Reels

Premier® Fly Reels
The Premier® fly reel exceeds even the most unrealistic expectations of what an entry-level reel should be. Built on our large arbor design and featuring a smooth disc drag, it is the perfect complement to our Premier® rods.

All are machined from solid 6061-T6 aircraft grade bar stock aluminum and feature stainless steel bearings for long life and smooth operation. Available in Gold or Titanium anodized finishes for corrosion protection. Spare spools are available. Simple to change between left and right hand retrieves.The Saltwater Turbine/Disc has stronger frames, stronger turbine drags and greater capacities to handle stripers, bluefish, bonefish, permit, cudas and other species. The BT&T (Billfish Tarpon & Tuna) is a heavy duty, large capacity reel that feature STH's Strongest turbine drag (from 1/2 lb. up to 10 lbs. max.) and a superbly smooth Teflon®/stainless steel disc drag.
