We made this downsized fly rod specifically for beginners or anglers with smaller features.
The Story
Because we believe in starting folks off on the right foot, we designed the Encounter Mighty-Mite Fly Rod Outfit for the beginner angler with small hands and big dreams. It combines state-of-the-art rod design with uncompromising performance in an 8' 5-wt. outfit that’s easily the best value on the market. The downsized EVA handle and extended fighting butt will help new anglers land their first big fish or their first hundred.
