Scott Fly Rods has just released their highly anticipated GT
Series, and we couldn’t be more excited. For those familiar with Scott, the
G Series has long been one of the company’s most iconic and enduring rod
families. Known for its classic full-flex action, it’s been the go-to choice
for dry fly anglers who love that smooth, buttery feel on the water.

When most rod companies introduce a new lineup, they tend to
start fresh with a new name. Not Scott. The G Series name carries too
much heritage and passion to be left behind. Instead, Scott continues to refine
it, integrating the latest materials and technology while staying true to the
rod’s soulful feel and balanced action.

Over the years, I’ve been fortunate to experience these subtle but meaningful refinements. My very first premium dry fly rod — a gift from my father when I was just a kid — was a G Series. I still have it, and I
lovingly call it the OG (Original Gangster) of my dry fly rods. That rod started my
obsession with dry fly fishing and set the standard for what a fly rod should feel
like.

Fast forward three or four generations of G Series rods
later, and I now own several models from different eras. To truly appreciate
the progress, I recently took all of them out and cast them side by side with
the new GT Series.

Even for a novice caster, the differences were immediately
noticeable. The GT rods are faster, more responsive, and remarkably accurate —
yet they retain that signature “Scott feel” that’s made the G Series so
beloved. The recovery speed is lightning quick, the accuracy is dialed in, and
the smoothness is unmistakable.

The GT Series represents everything anglers love
about the G lineage, elevated by modern craftsmanship and cutting-edge design.
It’s proof that Scott can push the limits of performance without losing the
heart and soul of their classic feel.

If you’re a fan of Scott Fly Rods or simply a dry fly purist
looking for the perfect blend of tradition and technology, the new GT Series
deserves a place in your hands — and on your favorite stretch of water.

The new Scott GT Series Fly Rods are not just a continuation of a legacy — they’re a showcase of engineering mastery. At the heart of these advancements is wall thickness and Scott’s X-Core design philosophy. The GT Series is the first lineup to feature Scott’s latest generation of X-Core technology, resulting in the thinnest-walled blanks ever produced by the company.

Using multi-modulus layups paired with ARC2 multi-directional fibers, Scott has achieved a dramatic increase in recovery speed, line speed, and stability. These rods track straighter, cast cleaner, and recover faster — giving anglers unmatched control and accuracy with every cast.

Scott also redesigned their signature hollow internal ferrule, making it up to 20% lighter while improving flex consistency throughout the rod. The result? Each section works seamlessly in harmony, so these 4- and 5-piece rods feel like a single-piece blank. Combined with thinner walls, the GT transmits an incredible level of
sensitivity — from the faintest take to the slightest current shift, you can
feel everything.

Of course, true to Scott’s reputation, the GT Series
isn’t just about performance — it’s also about craftsmanship. Each rod is a
functional work of art. The milled aluminum reel seats feature a Type
3 hard coat finish and stunning cocobolo wood inserts. The grips are
crafted from premium Flor-grade cork, ensuring comfort and longevity.

On the functional side, titanium-framed Zirconia
“no-tangle” stripping guides pair beautifully with Snake Brand Universal
snake guides, optimizing both durability and line flow. And as always,
Scott adds those subtle touches anglers appreciate — measuring wraps, alignment
dots, and handwritten inscriptions, complete with an individual
serial number.

Every single GT Series rod is handcrafted in
Montrose, Colorado, reflecting Scott’s unwavering commitment to precision
and pride in American rod building.

By blending cutting-edge materials with thoughtful design,
the Scott GT Series represents the pinnacle of what the G lineage stands
for — feel, performance, and soul. These rods aren’t just tools; they’re
an experience, built for anglers who value connection — to the fish, the water,
and the cast.
