“Let’s do this”
Redington has announced their all-new Original Kit—a classically designed rod, reel, and line built for timeless fly-fishing moments. Its looks pay homage to fly fishing’s heritage, while being fully equipped with an easy-to-cast, medium-fast action blank that’s ready for adventure. This is an ideal rig for an easy grab-and-go kit, or everyday fishing enjoyment.
Their goal is to get more anglers out on the water, with exciting products that are both functional, but also make a statement in the field through unique colorways and fun graphic styling. Redington has never been afraid to push the boundaries of what you should and shouldn’t do when it comes to developing fly-fishing gear. The Redington angler is ready to take on any adventure, whether it be slamming carp on the canal in your unicorn floatie or hiking into the backcountry equipped with Chacos and a fly rod.
Two rods will cover just about any species anglers could want to fish for. And the all-new Original Kits comes in two sizes for that reason–an Original Freshwater 5wt for trout, and an Original All Water 8wt for bass, salmon, and saltwater. Whether you’re just getting started or want to expand your species without breaking the bank, these kits are ready to fish.
A hard travel case is included as added protection. These 4-piece rods offer flexibility for an angler on the go. As a complete outfit it adds to the ease of delivering everything you need (just add flies) at a price that leaves room to make sure the cooler is always full.

“I’ve used the Original Freshwater on everything from trout, to smallies, to small carp, and it’s handled em’ all. A perfect kit that I’m not scared to get dirty or put through the ringer while fishing for anything that moves.” – KC Badger, Brand Ambassador

ORIGINAL ALL WATER (8wt)
You know the deal—from lightning fast bonefish on the flats to salmon ripping downstream, and all of that bass in between.
”The Original All Water is my new favorite heavy-duty rig. It casts like a dream and is just flat out fun to fish with. It can battle the heavy duty fish of the Great Lakes, or even pike and bass in way up north. This is my new go-to outfit for carp, bass, steelhead, and everything in between.” – Demiesha Dennis, Brand Ambassador.
