Scott G Series 904-4 50th Anniversary Fly Rod

A Tribute to Innovation – The Rod That Changed Fly Fishing Forever

In honor of 50 years of craftsmanship and fly fishing legacy, Scott proudly presents the G Series 904-4 50th Anniversary Fly Rod. This limited-edition rod celebrates a half-century of pioneering performance, camaraderie, and moments that shaped the sport we love. Scott hand-selected one rod from each decade that embodies the brand’s innovation – the very tools that redefined the way we fish.

The G Series 904-4 pays tribute to the revolutionary 9-foot, 4-weight rod that transformed fly fishing in the 1970s. Originally designed by Scott’s founder, Harry Wilson, this rod made it possible to fish light lines with precision, perfect for long leaders and technical rivers like the Henry’s Fork, Hat Creek, and the spring creeks of Paradise Valley. Built with modern techniques and components but staying true to the original design, the 50th Anniversary Edition is both a nod to the past and a leap into the future of fly fishing.

Each rod is crafted with care using a “resto-mod” approach, combining the original blank specifications with today’s best-in-class technology and materials. Anglers who love Scott rods know these are ‘never-part-with’ tools that carry the soul of the sport.

This rod isn’t just for the collector; it’s built to be cast, fished, and cherished for a lifetime.  Limted Edition Offer.

Key Features:

1. Heritage Reborn: Resto-Mod Design

Rather than replicating the original, Scott rodsmiths kept the blank’s specs intact but reimagined the finish. The result? A blend of classic design with today’s performance capabilities, offering familiar casting action with a touch of modern precision.

2. The Rod That Changed Fly Fishing

This rod is a tribute to the original 9-foot, 4-weight graphite rod developed in the mid-70s by Harry Wilson. Designed to handle long leaders, small flies, and light tippets, it was instrumental in changing how anglers approached technical waters. The 50th Anniversary version carries that same spirit, giving anglers unparalleled control over drag and the ability to engage large trout confidently.

3. Handcrafted in Montrose, Colorado

Every Scott G Series 904-4 rod is built by hand, one at a time, in the company’s headquarters in Montrose, Colorado. Each step in the process reflects the craftsmanship and dedication that has defined Scott for five decades.

4. Premium Finishing Components

• Graphite Rod Tube and Logo Rod Sock: Keeps the rod safe and stylish for transport.
• Precision Fit and Finish: Designed for anglers who appreciate both aesthetics and functionality. Every component is selected to enhance performance while honoring the rod’s original spirit.

Whether you’re fishing technical rivers or exploring spring creeks, this rod provides the control, feel, and performance that defined the golden era of fly fishing – with the craftsmanship and technology of today.
