Scott Swing Fly Rods have been fished and tested by professional anglers and expert casters from Alaska to the Great Lakes, from Canada to Norway, and from the Pacific Northwest to the Northeast. They left no stone unturned making sure each rod was fine-tuned for its intended purpose. The single hand, 9'8" 7wt model is featured here.
Scott Swing fly rods feature progressive loading actions, fast recovery speed, directional stability, and a light in hand feel, from combining finely tuned new tapers with our multi-directional, multi-modulus layups, ARC2 reinforcement, Carbon Link resin system, and the very finest components. Breakthrough components include new titanium tangle-free stripping guides with Silicon Nitride inserts that allow casts to shoot further and help prevent tangles in mono or braid running lines. Snake Brand Universal snake guides grace the rest of the rod to round out the guide set.
They also designed a new fully milled aluminum reel seat with aggressive threads for operating with cold hands, type 3 hard coat, and specially milled reel foot pockets that securely hold current performance reels and most vintage reel feet. All new front and rear grip designs turned from Flor grade cork ensure comfort, feel, and longevity.
* Carbon Link- An exponentially lighter, more efficient rod that reduces casting fatigue and effort, while improving accuracy and versatility performance
* ARC 2- Advanced Reinforced Carbon (ARC) adds directional stability and hoop strength while minimizing additional weight
* Re-Act- ReAct technology combines our X-Core design with a new complex materials and taper system to create a break-through in fast action rod design
* X-Core- They use fast taper mandrels with low-mass, thin-walled blanks and proprietary ARC reinforcement to create rods that have stiffness with feel, and stability with sensitivity
* Multi-Modulus- By varying the fiber tensile modulus along the length of the rod, Scott is able to precisely control the stiffness and recovery speed of their blanks
* Natural Finish- Scott's advanced resin systems permeate the blank, leaving a durable finish that will stand up to years of abuse
* Mil-Spec III- Mil-Spec III anodize penetrates the surface of the aluminum reel seat, creating the hardest, most durable, and most corrosion resistant finish available
* Titanium- Why would you want guides made from anything else?
* Universal Guides- These new, patented, American made guides from Snake Brand feature radius feet which conform to the blank, have the best corrosion resistance, and even have a self-lubricating finish to shoot line farther
* Come with a rod sack and aluminum Scott rod tube
Sometimes the fishing, or your preferences, just call for a single hander. These are also the finest general streamer rods they make.
987/4, 9’ 8” 7 wt 4 pc
Perfect when the species or water call for a single hander, especially when deploying techniques like nymph and indicator, or micro-tube riffle hitching. This is also one of our all-time favorite streamer rods for any species. This is a great all-rounder for destinations like Alaska or Iceland and of course a top choice of Great Lakes anglers.
