Red Truck Fly Fishing Company
At Red Truck Fly Fishing Co. we celebrate our sport by taking you back to a simpler time. By focusing on rods and reels that make sense and deserve to exist, we make fly fishing easy and accessible. We know your fishing time is valuable and jumping in a truck with a good buddy to the local fishing spot is just as important (maybe more) than flying halfway around to an exotic location.
How/Why we design our rods:
Red Truck Fly Rods have to be fun to cast – Simply said, a fly rod should be efficient and easy to cast. Our rods are designed to cast with little effort and consistent strokes from our 1wt to our 12WT.
Built with a Purpose – We designed all of our rods to have a specific fishing application. For example our 8 foot 6 inch 4 weight is designed specifically for dry fly fishing.
Durability– There is no worse sound than ***SNAP***. Our rods have a snake belly finish that dramatically increases the rods durability. Our unique ferrules (where the pieces come together) are sanded and not painted. This increases friction and keeps the rod from coming loose and breaking.
Premium Components– We searched the globe for the best cork, guides, and threads that money can buy.
Cosmetics– A fly rod should look like a fly rod, not a rally car. Our gun smoke finish, matte grey blanks, and burl wood reel seats are not only beautiful but reduce the risk of spooking fish with rod glare.
Repairs and Warranty– Repairs should be fast and easy! We build our rods so precisely that we can ship you a replacement section thus eliminating the horrible repair times of most rod brands. Most times, within a few days of contacting us, and you are fishing again.
With all of this in mind it is no wonder why our gear was featured in Men’s Journal magazine as one of their “50 Perfect Things”.
