Redington Butter Stick Salt LE Fly rod

The Redington Butter Stick Salt LE Fly Rod brings the smooth, relaxed casting feel of traditional glass rods to saltwater fishing and streamer applications.

From presenting baitfish patterns to juvenile tarpon to throwing articulated streamers for large trout, this limited-edition rod is made for anglers who appreciate a slower, more deliberate approach.

Finished in an exclusive translucent seafoam colour, the Butter Stick Salt LE is equipped for saltwater environments with a chrome-plated, corrosion-resistant reel seat and a saltwater-grade chrome-plated stainless steel guideset.

Q: What types of fly fishing rods do you sell?
A: At Drift Outfitters, we carry a full range of fly rods designed for trout, bass, steelhead, salmon, and saltwater species. Whether you’re just starting out or looking for a premium rod to match your skill level, our selection covers everything from small creek rods to big-water setups.

Q: How do I choose the right fly rod weight?
A: Rod weight should match the species you’re targeting and the flies you plan to cast. Lighter rods in the 3–5wt range are ideal for trout and delicate presentations, while 6–9wt rods are best for bass, steelhead, and salmon. For powerful saltwater fish like tarpon or permit, heavier 10–12wt rods are recommended.

Q: What rod lengths are available and why does it matter?
A: Most fly rods fall between 7 and 10 feet in length. Shorter rods are great for tight, brushy creeks where accuracy matters, while longer rods provide better reach and line control on larger rivers, lakes, and for specialized techniques like Euro nymphing or spey casting.

Q: Which fly rod brands do you carry?
A: We stock industry-leading brands such as Sage, G. Loomis, Echo, Redington, Sage, Guideline and more. These brands are trusted by anglers worldwide for innovation, durability, and performance across all styles of fly fishing.

Q: Do you sell spey and switch rods?
A: Yes, Drift Outfitters carries a complete lineup of spey and switch rods. These two-handed rods are ideal for swinging flies on big rivers, offering superior distance, control, and efficiency when chasing steelhead and salmon.

Q: How should I care for my fly rod?
A: Always rinse your rod with fresh water after fishing, especially if used in saltwater. Store it in a protective rod tube, keep ferrules clean, and avoid leaving it in hot cars or direct sunlight. Proper care will ensure your fly rod performs for years to come.
