Performance Fly Rods

Performance Fly Rods

PERFORMANCE FLY RODS

From the tight mountain creeks of West Virginia, to the open expansive water of Cape Cod and the sweeping coastal rivers of Washington, fly fishing can be practiced on all corners of the globe. Because of the extensive diversity of fish and their habitats, no one weight fly rod is universally the right choice. That's why here at Cortland Line Co. we have designed an array of Performance Rods so you can have the right equipment for any fly fishing environment.

Our Nymph Series and Competition MKII Series Fly Fishing Rods (both designed for Euro Nymphing) are the perfect choice for targeting spooky trout with modern-day nymphing techniques. Both are tailored to give anglers a soft-landing cast and subtle presentation. But the fight with a large fish and this rod’s spine strength, will amaze you! Both Fly Rods come in 2- and 3-weight options, with the choice of 10-, 10.5- and 11-foot lengths. If your local water requires perfect presentation, or you love tight area bow-and-arrow casts for small native brook trout, these rods are perfect for you. When presentation or delicacy is everything, don’t sacrifice for anything less than a Cortland Fly Rod!

The Competition MKII Series Fly Rods also comes in a 7- or 8-weight strength that's perfect for targeting large trout in heavy wind, or several types of saltwater fish on skinny-water flats. Anglers out West know better than anyone that trying to cut your flies through heavy wind in slot-canyons can be quite literally a drag; with the lightweight but sturdy MKII Series Fly Rods from Cortland, you can tackle challenging situations with ease. And if you're a saltwater angler, the performance of these rods on the most ferocious permit or bonefish will astonish you. So no matter if you’re looking for a sturdy fly rod to fight the ever-present wind, or trying to build a dream saltwater setup before your next trip to the Keys, be sure to check out the MKII Series Fly Rods from Cortland.
