Instead of the term “entry level,” we prefer to describe our Encounter rods and rod outfits as “affordable awesomeness.”
Built for the hardcore angler, yet priced with frugality in mind, the Encounter rod series combines state-of-the-art rod design with a smooth, crisp performance. The 9' 5-weight Encounter rod is easily the best value-priced fly rod of its kind. This is the perfect backup for an experienced travelling angler or for a new angler who plans to spend most of their time on bigger trout waters.
