Fly fishing rods

For fly fishing, there are different types of rods that can be used depending on fishing preferences and conditions. Here are some of the most popular types of fly fishing rods:

Single-handed fly rod: This is the typical fly fishing rod that is held with one hand. They are usually about 8 to 9 feet (2.4 to 2.7 meters) long and are used for smaller rivers and streams.

Double-handed fly rod: These rods, also known as spey casting rods, are longer and more powerful than single-handed fly rods. They are mainly used for fishing in large rivers and the sea, where it is necessary to make longer casts.

Travel fly rod: These are rods that consist of several sections and can be disassembled for easier transport and storage. They are convenient if you travel often and want to have a fishing rod with you.

Spin fly rod: These are rods that combine the characteristics of a fly rod and a spinning rod. They are suitable for fishing with artificial lures such as shiners, wobblers or spinning lures.

  • Fly fishing rods are classified by their "class" or "number". These classes indicate the weight of the front fly line with which the rod should be cast. Fly fishing rods are manufactured in different grades, with lighter grades used for finer fishing, while heavier grades are designed for larger species of fish or stronger fishing conditions. Here are some of the most common classes of fly fishing rods:


Class 1 (1wt): Used for very fine fishing, such as fishing for small trout in small rivers or streams.

Class 2 (2wt): Suitable for fishing larger trout and other small fish in larger bodies of water.

Class 3 (3wt): Suitable for fishing for trout, small bass and other medium sized fish.

Class 4 (4wt): Used for fishing larger trout, bass, walleye and other medium sized fish.

Class 5 (5wt): One of the most versatile classes, suitable for fishing for trout, bass, perch, catfish and other fish.

Class 6 (6wt): Suitable for larger bass, catfish, pike and other medium-sized fish.

Class 7 (7wt) to Class 9 (9wt): These classes are used for fishing large species of fish such as bass, pike, salmon, tuna and others.

There are also heavier classes, such as 10wt and above, which are used for very large fish or specific fishing conditions, such as saltwater fishing.
