A good day of fishing starts with a rod that feels right in your hands. Our Fishing Rods assortment includes fly rods and spin rods in a range of lengths, piece counts and wt ratings.
If you are choosing a fly rod, look first at the wt rating. On this page you will find options such as 3-4 wt, 4-6 wt and 7-9 wt, along with lengths like 8'9", 9' and 10'6". If you are choosing a spin rod, compare the rod length and the listed specifications to the reel and line you plan to use.
You will also see multi-piece designs, including four-piece rods, plus choices from L.L.Bean and Sage. For the most accurate match, check each item page for the full specifications before you build your setup.
A: It means the fly line weight the rod is designed to match. In this assortment you will see wt ranges like 3-4 wt, 4-6 wt and 7-9 wt. Choose a rod wt that matches the line and reel you plan to use.
Q: Should I choose a fly rod or a spin rod?
A: Choose a fly rod if you want a rod labeled by wt (line weight) and designed for a fly setup. Choose a spin rod if you want a rod paired with a spinning reel and selected by length and the rod's listed specifications. If you already own a reel, start there and match the rod to it.
Q: What is the difference between a one-piece and a four-piece fishing rod?
A: A one-piece rod is a single section, while a four-piece rod separates into four sections that join together. This page includes four-piece options. The right choice depends on how you prefer to store, carry and assemble your rod.
Q: How do I match a fishing rod to the right reel?
A: Start by matching rod type to reel type: fly rods pair with fly reels, and spin rods pair with spinning reels. Next, match the rod's listed specifications (including wt for fly rods) to the line and reel you plan to fish. Check both the rod and reel item pages for the most accurate setup details.
Q: How should I store and transport a fishing rod to help prevent damage?
A: Store it clean and dry, and keep it straight to protect the guides and tip. If you have a multi-piece rod, separate the sections and keep them together in the case or tube when provided. Avoid leaning a rigged rod where it can be stepped on or caught in a car door.
