This year, get back to what started your love of trout fishing. Hit those small streams. Go after those wild, feisty brookies, cutts, rainbows and goldens. As much as we all love blue ribbon rivers, they're busier than ever. So, there’s no better time to fish small streams. And no better rod to fish them with than our entirely updated and upgraded Superfine Trout Bum rods. Fish one and you’ll never go back to another rod for small waters. They’re a delight in the hand and a savior on small, tight waters.

For decades, the Superfine’s created some of the most memorable times for thousands of fly fisherman who love to fish small water. Its slower, full action is legendary. You can feel the entire rod working as it lays out a dry fly with delicate grace — a grace that can mean the difference between spooking those wild trout and landing a few.

Tight quarters also mean roll casting — and no rod roll casts among the alders, boulders, or bank-side brush more sweetly and accurately than does the new Superfine. It lays out your line and fly with precision and an easy touch. It’s a dream rod for such waters.

Plus, the new, updated and refined Trout Bums—crafted in our Manchester, Vermont fly shop—are made with our exclusive, proprietary thermoset thermoplastic resins found in our T3 and Zero Gravity rods. These resins not only make the new Superfine's lighter in the hand but also far stronger and more impact resistant— a huge plus when fishing those tight quarters. All that, and they sport a new olive blank with gold wraps, maplewood and cork inlay reel seat with nickel-silver hardware, gold cermet stripping guide, and titanium nitride snake guides.

So, go wild. Enjoy getting back to the basics on small, challenging streams in some of the most beautiful settings anywhere in the world — your favorite, true getaway — your favorite little gem. Let loose your inner trout bum, and bring along your new Superfine Trout Bum fly rod.

New, upgraded features include:

• exclusive thermoset, thermoplastic resins for maximum impact resistance and lighter weight

• handsome olive blanks with gold wraps

• maplewood and cork inlay reel seat finished with nickel-silver hardware

• gold cermet stripping guide
