When the afternoon canyon wind kicks up on the Deschutes and you need to chuck heavy streamer patterns or multi-fly indicator rigs, a standard trout rod just won’t cut it. Enter The "Middle D" 9ft 6wt.
This is the Upper D's big, powerful brother. Built as a fast-action 9ft 6wt, this setup is engineered with the extra backbone required to punch tight loops directly through a stiff headwind and turn over heavy bugs with absolute authority.
The combo includes our rugged 9ft 6wt fast-action rod, two dedicated rod tips (because deep canyons are no place for a broken rod to end your day), and your choice of a fully loaded Maxcatch reel and protective case.
Whether you're targeting trophy trophy trout, chasing smallmouth bass, or fighting a stiff current on big water, this is the powerhouse combo you want in your hand when the conditions get tough.
Sign up for The Hatch Report. We’ll slide $10 off your first rod or reel into your inbox, along with seasonal tips and field notes straight from Bend, OR.
