Orvis Mission Two-Handed, 4-Weight 11'4" Trout Spey
21MC5169
Regular price $798.00The Mission rods from Orvis are well-designed Spey and Switch rods made for anglers who prefer versatility and all water performance. Built with Helios 3 Technology, these rods feature a Medium-Fast action blank and accommodate a variety of casting styles. Practical features including composite cork in high-wear areas make these rods efficient and extremely durable. If you’re in the market for a new Spey rod, whether you’re a beginner or an expert, these rods are some of the smoothest on the market.
Helios 3 Technology - The Mission rods are built on the back of Helios 3 technology and construction. Orvis has built the Mission rods to have a strategically reinforced rod blank to maximize strength without increased overall weight. Helios 3 tech creates a blank that tracks beautifully, takes a truer path to the target, and can land a fly accurately from anywhere.
Hard Chrome Stripping Guides w/SiC Insert - Hard chrome stripping guides keep the Mission rods lightweight and functional. These guides feature a SiC insert for minimal line friction and added durability.
Hard Chrome Snake Guides - Hard chrome snake guides are a classic in contemporary fly fishing and there’s a reason most major manufacturers use these guides… they’re simple, effective, and stand up to weather and wear.
Type III Anodized Aluminum w/Double Downlocking Component - The reel seat on the Mission combines durability and craftsmanship. Grey anodized aluminum ensures maximum strength and a solid aluminum insert keeps the rod sleek and stylish. A double dowlocking component anchors large reels in place during long days on the water.
Aluminum Rod Tube - The Mission comes with an Orange rod tube that sports catchy black Orvis lettering. This Mission-specific tube protects the rod on the water and during travel and storage.
The Orvis 25-Year Guarantee - As of 5/8/2019, Orvis rods fall under the one-of-a-kind Orvis Guarantee. If broken within a quarter-century of purchase, Orvis vows to fix your rod. If they cannot fix the rod, Orvis will replace it regardless of circumstance. Normal wear and tear, accidental breakage, misuse and mistreatment along with anything else resulting in a broken rod are all covered in the Orvis 25-Year Guarantee. No questions asked. If Orvis cannot fix your broken rod and the rod has been discontinued, they will replace it with a current rod-model of equal value.

Regular price $598.00The Recon 4-Weight 8'6" 4-Piece is a trout rod with a versatile length and line weight that has the ability to place a dry fly deftly on the surface, fire a small streamer at a cut bank, or even handle a light nymph rig. If trout or even light bass and panfish are the target, the Recon 864-4 is an exceptional choice for versatility in a mid-price fly rod with premium performance attributes.Helios™ 3 is the benefactor behind the new Recon, utilizing its construction techniques and performance attributes to refine and improve the new series.

2TMM5164
Regular price $598.00Mid-price anglers, your fly rod has arrived.

Orvis Recon 4wt 9'0"
2TL55164
Regular price $598.00Helios 3 Technology - Orvis built the new Recon to fit into an action profile that splits the difference between the Helios 3F rods and the Helios 3D rods. That’s not the only thing the series takes from the Helios 3, however. Orvis also utilized the construction techniques and performance attributes of the Helios 3 in the new Recon Series. What does that mean? A Recon rod with better tracking, increased hoop strength, improved dampening, and improved accuracy. The Recon is also stronger, more impact-resistant, and higher-performing than ever before.
Silver Stripping Guides - The Recon 2 features silver stripping guides that help anglers fight the largest fish. These stripping guides are durable and corrosion-resistant for freshwater and saltwater performance when it matters. Plus, these guides are lightweight so they don’t add unnecessary weight to the rod overall.
Silver Snake Guides - Similarly, the snake guides on the new Recond rods feature improved performance and durable reliability. These guides are the perfect combination of affordability and durability which is why Orvis chose to put them on the new Recon rods.
Pewter Type III Anodized Aluminum Reel Seat - Some major technological advancements have been made on these new Recon rods and the reel seat is certainly one of them. The freshwater rods feature a stylish wood insert but that’s not the most important story on these reel seats. Type III Anodizing may be the strongest anodizing on any reel seat ever… and the freshwater and saltwater versions of the Recon 2 utilize Type III for incredible durability.
Full Cork Handle - All rods in the series feature a full-wells cork handle. The cork is comfortable and fits an angler’s hand well for a solid performance on the water.
Nylon-Covered Rod Tube - The Recon rod series comes in a Nylon-covered rod tube for protection during transportation and storage. These Nylon rod tubes aren’t waterproof, but they protect the rod from dings and dents when traveling.

TR2 4wt 11'3" Trout Spey Outfit | Skagit Scandi or Both
053163871383
Regular price $379.99Here at Raft and Fly we have spent hundreds of hours researching the perfect line setups for each two hand rod we carry. The Echo TR2 is no exception, and frankly it is an absolute blast to swing!
The Echo TR2 4wt has become a cult favorite among two hand fly casters since it's inception. With a deep load and an incredible amount of reserve power, you can feel the Echo TR2 initiate launch casting a mile.
There are two line systems we recommend for the Echo TR2 4wt.
1. Orvis Mission 360 gr. skagit head paired with the Mission T-8, 8' Tips
2. OPST Commando 275 gr. skagit head paired with Rio T-8 10' MOW Tips.
3. Add a Scientific Anglers Scandi Lite 360 grain Head.
While we can't tell you which line system you'll prefer without you visiting our shop, we can outline the difference between the two.
Option 1 - OPST Commando Lighter than most....
The OPST Commando head will feel lighter in hand throughout your cast. It is 85 fewer grain than the Orvis Mission head after all! OPST accomplishes this through what is commonly referred to as line stick. Commando heads are thicker than other heads creating more surface area to come into contact with the water. This is what we call line stick and allows the angler to set their anchor building the kinetic energy to load the rod and propel the line and fly to it's intended target.
Option 2 - Orvis Mission Skagit Head
If you read nothing else, read this... Easy to cast
Orvis might be new to the two hand line game, but they have made an incredible entrance with their new Mission Skagit Head.
While companies such as OPST have created lines which are lighter, the Orvis Mission gets back to basics, meaning it takes mass to move mass though still lighter than other lines from Rio. The Orvis Mission's extra weight carries the line further and with more stability, translating into tighter loops and more distance.
Still not sure which line to choose?
If you want a line that loads deeper go with the Orvis Mission.
If you want a line that feels lighter or might be used on your single hand 8wt 9' rod or 7wt 10' (see our Echo Ion single hand kits...) then go OPST.
