The 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. Increased hoop strength, better tracking, improved damping, and ultimately, significantly improved accuracy are now incorporated into the Recon that is also stronger, more impact resistant, and offers the mid-price buyer access to the best technology Orvis fly rods have to offer.

The reel will be spooled up Left-Hand Retrieve, unless you specify right-hand retrieve in the Notes at check out. Also to let us know in the Notes section of any fly line choices if that’s an option.

Shop Staff Notes: The NEW Orvis Recon 8’6″ 4-weight Fly Rod is the quintessential small to medium stream trout rod. (Though it will be fun on the MO too when the wind isn’t ripping.) The Recon performs like many rods twice it’s price (except the Helios 3F 864-4 of course!). If you have one fly rod to pick and $498 is in your budget or maybe just above your budget, than save money on the reel (maybe get a Clearwater Large Arbor or Battenkill Disc instead of a Hydros or Mirage LT) and get this rod! This is a perfect rod for dry flies, for nymph fishing and for pitching streamers. Fishing from a boat, wade fishing or kick boat, this is a versatile rod. Grab your topo map and go explore some blue lines!
