APACHE II Telescopic Fly Fishing Rod

Embark on unforgettable fishing journeys with the RIFT Apache II Telescopic Fly Rod, a 7'10" masterpiece reengineered for anglers who live for the thrill of the cast and the freedom of the open water. Redesigned to align with standard fly rod weights, this fast-action rod ensures effortless fly line pairing, delivering pinpoint accuracy whether you’re drifting delicate dries for trout in alpine streams, tossing streamers for bass in local lakes, or battling on coastal flats. Crafted with a 24T IM6 carbon fiber blank, the Apache II blends rugged durability to withstand travel and big fish with the sensitivity to present light flies with finesse, empowering you to chase your next trophy with confidence.

The Apache II transforms every fishing trip into an immersive experience with its angler-focused upgrades. A permanent fighting butt provides exceptional leverage for taming hard-pulling fish, while the updated contoured cork grip offers a comfortable, non-slip hold for precise fly placement, even in rain-soaked or icy conditions. Its sleek new finish not only captivates with its refined aesthetic but also protects against wear from rugged adventures, ensuring your rod stays pristine trip after trip. Collapsing to just 21.5 inches, this telescopic rod slips seamlessly into a backpack, suitcase, or vehicle, making it the ultimate companion for spontaneous getaways. The one-piece telescopic design sets up in seconds, eliminating the hassle of lost sections and ensuring reliability wherever your passion takes you.

Engineered for performance, the Apache II boasts premium components that elevate every cast. A stripping guide minimizes line friction for smooth, long-distance casts and extreme line angles during fights, while stainless steel single-foot wire fly guides with a large loop tip ensure corrosion-free, snag-free line flow, perfect for both freshwater and light saltwater environments. A folding hook keeper keeps flies secure during travel, and the lightweight alloy reel seat with dual lock rings locks your reel firmly in place, reducing vibrations for a seamless connection. At just 5.5 oz, this 7'10" rod delivers the speed, power, and accuracy to cast light to heavy flies, making every moment on the water unforgettable.
