The 790 VICE is one of the most versatile rods we build. From smallmouth to big browns, to small bonefish, snook, and steelhead, it really does do it all.
The VICE is a classically styled, fast-action rod range designed to be accessible to all anglers. The multi-modulus carbon fiber blanks offer increased levels of recovery for casting with greater accuracy and control, and the subtle design touches like black anodized snake guides, laser-etched reel seats, and saltwater-grade components all work together to create a fly rod that anglers can't resist. It's available in a wide range of specialty sizes for unique applications will not only feed a fishing habit, but may just transform it into a VICE.
