If ever there was a standard for all-around performance on larger streams, rivers, and lakes for multiple species of fish, it’s the Recon 5-Weight 9′ 4-Piece Fly Rod. The 905-4 is a rod that can handle big trout, bass, and panfish from coast to coast. This length/weight rod is the number one selling configuration. Its length and mid-range line weight give it great versatility for dry-fly fishing, streamer fishing, perfect for a drift boat, and nymphing mid to light/heavy rigs. When you want to cover water, throw everything from an Adams to a deer-hair popper, the Orvis Recon 9′ 5-weight is an exceptional choice for all-around versatility in a mid-price fly rod with 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. Proudly designed and made in Manchester, VT, USA.

Shop Staff Notes: The Orvis Recon 9′ 5-weight Fly Rod is our top selling rod. The Recon performs like many rods twice it’s price (except the Helios 3F 905-4 and Helios 3D 905-4 of course!). If you have one fly rod to pick and $498 is in your budget or maybe just above your budget, than save money on the reel (maybe get a Clearwater Large Arbor or Battenkill Disc instead of a Hydros or Mirage LT) and get this rod! This is a perfect rod for dry flies, for nymph fishing and for pitching streamers. Fishing from a boat, wade fishing or kick boat, this is a versatile rod. Grab your topo map and go explore some blue lines!
