**Scott 50th Anniversary Rods**

Scott G 904-4 (50th anniversary limited edition)

Why was it groundbreaking?  The 2-piece version of this rod was the first 4-weight over 8 feet designed by any rod maker and this version was lauded as one of the first 4-piece rods that honestly felt the same as its 2-piece counterpart.  Considered a design marvel in the late 1970s, this model proved to be one of the finest angling tools of its generation, a precision caster that excelled in every on-the-water technique with durability that kept most of the originals in tact for 45 years and counting.

Why is it timeless:  No modern fly rod roll casts, protects delicate tippet or more artfully presents a dry fly at the end of a long leader.  A prevailing theology among accomplished technical dry fly anglers is to choose the fly rod that offers the greatest level of control.  On rivers such as the Henry’s Fork, Missouri, San Juan, Silver Creek and Delaware, the most important role of the fly rod is to help the angler make a precise cast and dead drift.  In reach casts, stack mends, slack line techniques and downstream presentations, this rod is unsurpassed, and while modern graphite materials improve the power, stability and lightness of our fly rods, nothing beats the feel of an original Scott G.

When graphite arrived on the scene in the mid 70’s, Wilson’s light bulb moment was to envision a long light line rod using the new material. When he told friends in the fly fishing community about his idea, they said it couldn’t be done.

Not to be deterred, he forged ahead. After many challenges and attempts, Scott released the first 9 foot 4 line graphite rod. It changed fly fishing.

Anglers had a new tool to fish long leaders and small flies on technical rivers like the Henry’s Fork, Hat Creek, and Paradise Valley spring creeks. Anglers could control drag, fish light tippets, and engage large trout like never before.

To this day, the G904/4 is named among the finest light line fly rods ever built.
