The Little River began with a phone call from an angler in upstate New York searching for the perfect small-stream rod. His vision was simple: a lightweight 2- or 3-weight capable of delivering precise casts in tight quarters while chasing native brook trout in hidden, overgrown waters.
We answered with a moderate-flex design built for accuracy, feel, and fun. Finished in our signature matte green blank with burnt orange wraps, crisp white tag ends, and a brook trout-inspired rainbow accent at the hook keeper, the Little River pays tribute to the fish and places that inspired it.
What started as one angler's dream has become our best-selling fly rod for seven consecutive years. From tiny Maine brooks to mountain streams across the country, the Little River has earned a reputation for making every fish feel memorable and every cast feel effortless.
Available in multiple configurations, including our highly versatile 8' 7-piece 3-weight, the Little River is built for anglers who value portability, precision, and connection to the water. Upgraded with premium slow-growth cork grips featuring ultra-dense, low-filler cork, it offers exceptional sensitivity, durability, and comfort season after season.
If your idea of a perfect day involves cold water, tight casts, and wild trout painted in autumn colors, the Little River belongs in your hand.
