About

The Orvis 1856 Bamboo Fly Rod blends classic materials with modern design. This 8-foot, 5-weight rod excels on larger Western rivers and smaller waters alike, from the Delaware River to Silver Creek. The hollow build ensures light weight and quick rebound, minimizing vibration during casts.

Key features include:

  • 8-foot length, designed for a 5-weight line
  • Three-piece construction for easy transport
  • Includes 1 tip section
  • Downlocking nickel silver reel seat with Vermont maple burl insert
  • 6.5" full wells cork grip

The progressive flex allows for varied casting styles. Under-line for a faster feel, or over-line for a slower, more deliberate cast. Each rod undergoes a hand inspection by Orvis' master rod builder in Vermont to guarantee quality.

Orvis offers a lifetime warranty for bamboo rods, covering defects in workmanship. Repairs due to defects are free, including inspection, labor, parts, and return postage. Accidents or carelessness will be repaired for a fee, with a written estimate provided before work begins. For repairs, contact the Orvis Outfitter Team.
