The STS series put Scott on the saltwater map. Widely adopted by Florida Keys captains and saltwater anglers around the globe, they were introduced at a time when saltwater fly fishing and travel to new destinations in the tropics were taking off.
STS built on the success of ARC by using multi-directional lay ups and took materials alchemy a step further utilizing the first multi-modulus blank designs.
Anglers who have followed our history fondly remember Scott’s ‘Jet Ski era’ and images of casting from the wing of a submerged aircraft and lifting cinder blocks with the rod from the top of a poling platform.
By a wide margin, the 909/3 is considered the crown jewel in this transformative series.
This year marks a monumental milestone: the 50th anniversary of Scott Fly Rods—a brand synonymous with excellence and innovation in the fly fishing industry. To commemorate half a century of crafting high-performance fly rods, a special limited edition collection has been curated.
Reflecting on the brand's legacy, this collection pays homage to the pioneers like Harry Wilson, Larry Kenney, and Jim Bartschi whose designs have significantly shaped modern fly fishing. A singular, iconic rod from each decade has been meticulously chosen, showcasing Scott’s relentless pursuit of perfection.
