Scott 50th Radian Fly Rod 5wt – 9’0″ – 4pc

“This year, we proudly celebrate our 50th anniversary. Its been a journey filled with fun, firsts, camaraderie, and a half-century of handcrafting high performance fly rods.

In contemplating the most fitting tribute to the anglers who fish Scott rods, the rodsmithsthat craft them, and the rod designs of Harry Wilson, Larry Kenney, and Jim Bartschi, we picked one rod from each decade that exemplifies Scott innovation and, in some way, changed the way we fish.

Each was chosen from an award-winning series of Scott rods that are even more celebrated by the anglers who fish them. For those anglers, these are never part with rods.

Rather than replicating the originals, we decided to build the blanks to spec with a resto mod approach to finishing them. They will be instantly recognizable to Scott history buffs, but were introducing some new surprises by finishing them with todays best-in class components and construction techniques.

In celebration we offer these tribute fly rods with a heartfelt thank you to the whole Scott family.”

Like the G904 forty years earlier, Radian rods fundamentally changed the angling experience. Through material and design innovations, Radian rods solved the dilemma of bringing together fast action with feel. They also showcased a new approach to components that set new standards and made them even more endeared to anglers. When considering which rod from our recent past to offer as an anniversary edition, the choice was clear.

Sworn by many to be the finest fast rod of all time, the R905/4 is the most coveted historical Scott rod model.
