Scott Swing Fly Rod
To catch steelhead and salmon, you need to swim the fly at the right angle, the right depth, and the right speed. The right rod can help solve that puzzle.
But these are the fish of a thousand casts, so preferences also play a big role. You can fish the same fish in the same water with a single hander, a short two hander, or the very longest rods. You can fish floating line, sinking line, dry flies, wet flies, traditional swing, riffle hitch, nymph and indicator. Long belly, Skagit, Scandi. The variations are endless. We get it, so we made a series of rods that satisfy your every preference.
Swing rods were meticulously developed and are loaded with technology and attention to detail to meet those demands.
Fished and tested by professional anglers.

Zoe Duncan –
This rod handles long casts with excellent sensitivity. I’ve used it in cold water streams and it responds well to subtle fly movements. The balance is perfect for swing fishing and I can feel the line tension clearly.
Katherine Oliver –
Great for steelhead fishing in rivers. The action is smooth and the tip holds up well under heavy strikes. A bit stiff at the end, but that’s expected for a swing rod.
Rebecca Alsop –
I’ve switched from a traditional two-hand rod to this model. The swing performance is superior, especially when using dry flies. It’s more forgiving and easier to control in windy conditions.
Sean Parr –
Solid build quality. The rod feels responsive and durable. I’ve used it in both clear streams and heavy cover. Not the lightest, but it’s worth the weight for the performance.
Jonathan Watson –
Perfect for long-distance casting. The rod maintains accuracy and control even when swinging the fly at different depths. I can feel the fish bite clearly and react quickly.
