Complete Overhaul of Design and Tapers for 2008: Clearwater II rods utilize Orvis design tapers created in Manchester, Vermont. These tapers feature smooth, easy casting, great power, and resilient fish-fighting ability.
Lower Modulus Blanks: The mid-modulus graphite of the Orvis Clearwater II rods promote increased strength and scratch-resistance. Gives beginning fly fishers a gentle, smooth stroke with extra strength, while being 15%-20% lighter than previous Clearwaters due to new carbon scrim technology.
Brushed Aluminum Hardware, Woven Graphite Insert: Premium machined brushed anodized aluminum from 6262 aerospace grade stock, complimented with a lightweight woven graphite insert.
Deep Blue Graphite Finish: Clearwater II’s dark finish with deep blue wraps offers great impact and scratch-resistance. Beautiful out-of-the-box look stays for a lifetime.
New Cordura Case: PVC strengthened, Cordura covered case with internal dividers and zip closure is a significant upgrade from previous Clearwater rod tubes.
Lightweight Snake Guides: Ceramic lined stripping guide.
Tapers Designed by Orvis in Manchester, Vermont: Built to our exact taper designs, component, and production specifications, every step of the production is supervised by Orvis. Each rod is subject to the same rigorous inspection in Vermont as any Orvis rod.
Unconditional 25-year Guarantee: No company stands behind their product as proudly as Orvis. When there is a concern or problem with the product, our no-questions-asked policy ensures the customer is made happy.
