Rod Description

Our Premier Switch Rod.  Now made to order!

Inspired by one of earliest batches, first launched in March of 2019.  From 3 length options and various weights. Moderate action for incredible line control and all the versatility a Switch offers.

For many, switch rods have become the go-to rod for two-handed spey casting. Smaller and lighter than a traditional spey rod and easier to navigate through the trails to your local river. Switch rod fanatics boast of finishing the day with less fatigue and needing far less room to cast than their full size cousin the spey.

All switch rods are made to order. Whats better than a new switch rod built by hand for you. Please allow 4 weeks for shipping.  

This batch offers: 

- 10'6" or 11' 

- 3w, 4w or 5w options in either length

- Matte black carbon fiber, 4 piece blank

- 8.75" fore grip with Burled Cork trim ends and a 3.75" long butt 

- Black snake guides following size 12 & 10 stripping guides

- Gunmetal seat w/ gunmetal finished hardware

- Finished with our signature Maine Fly Co branded handle

- Delivered in a Black Canvas Rod Sock, (add a rod tube $30)
