What are Orvis fly rods made of?
Orvis Fly Rods are known for their exceptional craftsmanship and performance, thanks to their unique material composition. Manufactured with a proprietary blend of aerospace-grade graphite fibers, these rods are ultra-lightweight yet incredibly durable. Featuring a smooth semi-gloss finish, Orvis Fly Rods use an ergonomic grip design that offers increased comfort and better connection between angler and rod. The hexagonal cross-section profile of the rod shaft also provides strength and stiffness over traditional round section rod profiles. All materials used to make an Orvis Fly Rod are specially selected for individual performance characteristics including modulus, torsional strength, tensile strength, dampening qualities, impact resistance and resilience. With this in mind you can be sure your rod is built with maximum quality guaranteeing reliable use.
