Orvis Recon 865-4 Freshwater Fly Rod - 8ft 6in 5wt

Built for smaller rivers, this versatile 5-weight delivers the precision, strength, and feel trout anglers rely on.

Recon® packs high-end performance into a rod made to be thrown in the back of a truck, strapped to a pack, or stowed in a floatplane pontoon. Using construction techniques inspired by our Helios™ series, we developed an incredibly durable rod series that delivers increased hoop strength for enhanced lifting power, pinpoint tracking for long casts, and smooth loading in close.

Recon is built to adapt—whether you’re tucking baitfish patterns up under mangroves or picking pockets in headwater creeks. No unnecessary flair, just relentless go-anywhere versatility, crafted in the USA by anglers who measure success by stories, not likes. Available in 13 new freshwater and six saltwater models.
