Inspired by the Golden Age of fly fishing, Ström Traditional combines the timeless aesthetics of classic cane rods with the cutting-edge performance of next generation carbon technology. A special edition collection that celebrates the heritage of rod making without compromising on the strength, stability or accuracy expected from modern day anglers.

Designed specifically for small rivers and stillwater environments, the 490 combines lightweight versatility with refined presentation and stunning good looks. Built around our enhanced 7X heptagonal cross-section technology, the blank maximises tracking precision and power transfer through the line. Perfect for delicate, light-line fishing, it excels at presenting nymphs, wet flies and dry flies with subtlety and absolute control.

Engineered for anglers seeking the ideal balance of power, finesse and responsiveness, the Ström Traditional 590 elevates both your time on the water and your effectiveness as an angler. Its unique heptagonal cross-section provides an exceptional strength-to-weight ratio, lightning-fast recovery and effortless precision. Highly versatile, it excels when wading small streams or casting from a drift boat. Equally adept at managing dry flies, weighted nymphs and light streamers, the 590 is the ultimate light-line all-rounder for fly fishers who want peak performance.

The 796 excels in situations that call for larger flies fished on both floating and sinking lines, and is an outstanding tool for targeting migratory species across diverse freshwater and coastal environments. Whether turning over surface bombers for rising Atlantic salmon, swinging flies for sea trout, pursuing hard-fighting steelhead or using heavy-sinking lines and big flies on large stillwaters, it delivers exceptional casting power and total line control in all conditions.
