The Clearwater 4-Weight 10\\\' Fly Rod offers versatility and excellent reach for light trout whether nymphing, mending small streamers, or maintaining a longer dry-fly drift. A great rod for situations where line control and contact with the fly are important. Also an excellent panfish rod that enhances the fight with its light sensitivity and extended length. The new Clearwater Rod Series is not just a cosmetic facelift, but a complete overhaul from the ground up by our Vermont rod designers. Everything has changed except the value. It\\\'s still the best fly rod you can buy for the money, but with a significant upgrade in performance and looks in a comprehensive series that covers every angler from small stream addicts to Skagit slinging two-handers. Each rod was designed with a purpose-built profile and action to handle the kind of fishing the rod model would be traditionally used for, from medium-action small stream rods to medium-fast freshwater rods and fast-action big game rods.
