Drifter Covert Rod

Upstart Colorado brand Drifter Fly Fishing recently launched their new rod the Covert. According to Drifter, “Our goal was to design a premium rod that is ideally tuned to the needs of trout fishermen. The Covert is dialed in for precise casting and delicate presentations, and provides uncanny feel and feedback to the angler when the line is in the air, or when a fish is on the hook. We simply thought it more important to prioritize rod feel over recovery speed or stiffness.”

To optimize feel of the Covert, Drifter utilizes moderate action graphite blanks built with modern tapers and materials.   The Covert is handcrafted in the Rocky Mountains, and available in 2 through 5 weight models. Drifter utilizes high-end components such as Snake Brand Universal Guides, a Box Elder Burl spacer, and premium cork that is hand selected in Portugal, and later turned to shape in their shop.
