Orvis 34794 Encounter Fly Rod OutfitInstead of the term "entry level," we prefer to describe our new Encounter rod outfits as "affordable awesomeness." Built for the hardcore angler, yet priced with frugality in mind, the Encounter rod series combines stateoftheart rod design with smooth, crisp performance. Ideal for bigwater trout and an excellent option for light steelhead.ImportedThe Encounter series rods are exempt from our standard 25year guarantee, but do come with a limited warranty against defects in the original workmanship. If, by any means, the rod is deemed defective by our Rod Shop, Orvis will be happy to replace itExtra length for long mends or highstick nymphingLarge arbor Encounter reelWeightforward floating line, backing and leader
