As the name suggests, this rod was built for travel. The Trailblazer rod breaks down into six pieces, is extremely light, and comes with a compact rod tube.

Redington Crux Fly Rod

This is obviously Redington’s flagship fly rod, and in their own words, the “best rod we’ve ever made. It uses their Line Speed Tape for extreme distance casting and easier short and mid range casts.

The fine diameter blank and stiff tip increase rod recovery speed. They’ve used pre-compressed cork and an angled grip to increase durability and decrease hand fatigue.

The rod also features alignment dots, a double-anodized reel seat, and hook keepers in an Olive Matte finish.

Redington Classic Trout Fly Rod

Since fly fishing has historically been mostly about trout, it seems appropriate that Redington has an offering specifically for them. It features more forgiving medium action, titanium stripping guides, and custom machined reel seat components.

The clay brown rod comes in both 4 and 6 piece options to facilitate more compact travel when hiking small streams or heading to the local freestone river.

The Predator is Redington’s answer for big flies, heavy, lines, and big fish. This fast action rod was built for carrying heavy flies long distances and fighting aggressive fish.
