Scott Centric Freshwater Fly Rods

Fast, Fresh & Unfiltered

Introducing the new Scott Centric series of fly rods.

Scott put the feel in fast action rods. Now we’re taking it to the next level.

Cutting edge Centric series fly rods deliver new levels of stability, recovery speed, and range, while giving anglers tons of feedback through the easy flexing tip sections and highly transmissive blanks.

These are the most efficient rods Scott has ever created. High line speed, flat, stable loops are easily generated at any distance with minimal effort from the caster.

Apparent to anglers of any skill level, these rods feel very light in the hand, are insanely accurate, and are simply a joy to fish at any distance.

Ease of roll casts and mends is next level. The ability to control loop shape and line speed at any distance give anglers wide ranging versatility.

Centric rods combine new tapers and multi-modulus lay ups with a new resin system to increase fiber density and reduce weight, and they feature our new generation ARC reinforcement for greater stability along multiple axes. New custom rolling equipment allows us to control fiber placement and density with new levels of precision.

And just to top it all off, we designed new standard-setting componentry for Centric rods that redefine functionality, durability, and beauty.

Scott Centric rods are fit with Flor grade cork, new titanium stripping guides with super slick zirconia inserts, new low glare Snakebrand Universal snake guides, and a new fully milled reel seat featuring speed threads, easy grip knurling, self-indexing hoods, micarta inserts, a special Delrin lock washer, and type 3 flat black hard coat.

Centric rods are handcrafted in the USA from the finest materials.

Our new generation ARC is over 35% lighter and sets a new first in ultra-light multi-ply blank construction. The result is even more torsional stability with substantially lighter weight. This helps your rod track better for greater loop control and pin point accuracy.

Centric rods combine new precision construction techniques with
our innovative new resin system to bond carbon fibers in a very dense matrix. The result? An exponentially lighter, more efficient rod that reduces casting fatigue and effort, while improving accuracy and versatility performance.

Our new titanium stripping guides with super slick zirconia inserts not only reduce weight while maintaining excellent strength but also assist in shooting line and look super pimp while doing so.

These new, patented, American made guides from Snake Brand feature radius feet which conform to the blank, have the best corrosion resistance, and even have a self-lubricating finish to shoot line farther. Now with a low glare finish for added stealth.

We don't care how seriously you take yourself, you may be an elite comp angler or a casual cat, we've created a collection of super dialled euro sticks that are super sensitive so you'll feel every bump and hesitation your flies make on their drift. The Primal Zone is the stick that will catch you more fish whether you're wanting to keep count or just add to your smirk as you pick fish out behind your buddy.

PRIMAL ZONE EURO NYMPH Length - 10'6 Line Weight - #3 Pieces - 4

The MEGA saltwater series rods are built to handle aggressive saltwater predators from New Zealand kingfish, Australian Permit right through to all of the different species available in the tropics. As with the Primal RAW freshwater series, the improved tracking of the rod will maximise your chances when chasing the ocean fish species with clean, powerful and accurate casting. The 57MSI blanks have optimal wall diameters to maximise lifting power without compromising the rods casting ability. The reel seats are fully machined aluminium with titanium SIC stripper guides and corrosion resistant snake guides.

This series was designed to meet the expectations and demands of the Kiwi angler: tough, durable with crisp actions and delivered at an affordable price that the everyday man can afford.  All of this has been incorporated into our most successful and longest standing rod series to date.  New cosmetics and new models are always being added to keep this series at the fore front of leading design.

Catana spin rods have been built on graphite blanks, providing a sensitivity and lightness to enhance the fishing experience, and are finished in a deep blue colour. Each model has Sea Guide Zirconium ring guides bound in black and metallic blue to match the blank, metal winding checks surrounding the split EVA butt configurations, and Sea Guide reel seats. Their price tag may see them overlooked, but don't let this fool you; these are quality performance rods that will provide years of enjoyment for those who pick one up.

The RAW freshwater series of fly rods feature an ultra-high modulus prepreg of 65 and 57 MSI fibres held together with an extremely strong nano resin. This resin is so strong they were able to reduce the resin content to half of what would normally be used by competitors. This reduces weight and increases the amount you feel through the blank. The rods are fitted with customised machine cut skeletal reel seats with double locking rings and stabilised timber inserts. The stripping guide is a titanium framed SIC and the guides are custom light wire single foot guides. The rod actions are fast while still maintaining enough feel to drop a tiny dry at close range off the rod tip.

The new Primal Stash six piece fly rod is the ultimate sneaky 9ft five weight to tuck away in your luggage, car, pack for when the fishy moments present themselves. Let us conceptualise a few scenarios for you... SCENARIO #1 Fly fisherman are a danger on the roads when it comes to bridges that cross rivers. It's impossible for us to not slow down to take a peak and see how clear the river is running, if anyone is fishing or...if you time it just right, a fish is rising. Well remember that six piece Primal Stash fly rod you have living in the boot of the car? It would be rude not to... SCENARIO #2 You've planned a romantic getaway with your significant other that doesn't have fly fishing as part of the agenda, so packing a four piece fly rod in your bag might be rather conspicuous and controversial under the circumstances. A six piece Primal Stash however is just the ticket for hiding away in your bag under your socks and undies and will be put to good use while "someone" goes and treats themself to a two hour long massage. Pack at your own risk. SCENARIO #3 Going into the back country for a walk is one of life's great pleasures and sometimes it's nice to do just that, go for a walk. More often than not we plan full on fly fishing trips or hunting trips into the hills and don't really get to spend the time relaxing like we should. But no-one wants to go all that way and then come across a fish of a lifetime happily swinging away in a pool without a care in the world and not be able to have a crack at it. Well in this situation you'd just dump the pack, pull out the Primal Stash rod, a reel and a Loon Lanyard loaded with tippet, floatant and flies and you're ready to convert that trophy trout. Too easy.

Through blank taper optimization and specialized length offerings, the TROUT LL is perfected for wade fishing, closer casts, small flies, and light tippets.

When the hatch is on, the TROUT LL is an angler's best friend. Drawing inspiration from historic Sage rods of the past, the TROUT LL is a nod toward tradition with a classic appearance and a smooth casting taper, yet adds modern performance features in accuracy and loop control through the backbone of Konnetic HD blank material.

Meet the All New Radian. Until now, you've had to choose between a rod with power and line speed, or a rod with touch and feel. But thanks to Scott, those days are over. Fast and Feel have finally come together. So, how'd we do it? We dramatically increased recovery speed with our new ReAct technology. By minimizing energy- sapping vibrations, ReAct creates fast action, high line speed rods with all the nuance and feel of a presentation rod. Now, roll casts to a tricky seam, and short, delicate casts with fine 6X leaders are just as easy as long distance streamer deliveries to the opposite bank. And after the cast, when you need extended fishability, Radian rods give you incredible mending abilities and tippet protection without sacrificing the authoritative hook setting and fish fighting power you expect from a fast action rod. But, it's more than advanced technology that make the Radian so amazing. Check out the components and workmanship. There isn't a finer production rod in existence. Features like titanium framed SiC stripping guides, custom reel seats with burled box elder spacers, the very top grade Portuguese cork, and the new patented Universal snake guides from American maker Snake Brand round out the most fully loaded rods to ever grace a rod rack.
