---

As the pursuit of pressured, wary trout becomes ever more technical, rods that can handle small flies and long, light leaders become ever more important. Scott's G2 series is ideal for this delicate work. With a gentle, easy casting stroke, these moderate-action rods are perfectly suited for precise casting at normal distances of 10 to 60 feet. The original Scott G series was hugely popular for this sort of fishing during the 1980s. Now the company's rod makers have tamed newer, high-tech graphites to emulate that original signature feel. The spigot-style ferrules on these rods are still hand-fitted one at a time-"which, along with other detail work, commands the high price. Fifteen four-piece models for line weights 2 through 7.
