ArcticSilver RISE Medium-Action Single-Handed Fly Rod 4pc
ArcticSilver's latest highlight, the Switch-Flex System (patent pending), offers exceptional flexibility. This innovative system allows you to swap fly rod blanks within the same handle in seconds. Whether you're transitioning from a delicate 3-weight rod for precise casting to a heavy 10-weight rod for fighting larger fish, the Switch-Flex System makes the process simple with just a few quick adjustments. For those who already own a Switch-Flex handle, Arctic Silver’s affordable blanks can be easily mounted into the system for a seamless upgrade.
The Switch-Flex handle is crafted from a high-quality carbon composite (40% carbon) for superior strength and lightness, combined with marine-grade silicone for a secure grip and lasting durability, even in saltwater environments. The reel seat is made from lightweight 6061 aluminum and is Type 2 hard-anodized to withstand the harsh conditions of saltwater fishing. The fighting butt can be customized, with three different end caps included in the protective case, which can be easily screwed onto the reel seat. This system not only ensures fatigue-free casting throughout the day but also reduces strain on the wrist and tendons, one of the many advantages of Arctic Silver’s innovative handle design.
The RISE fly rod series by Arctic Silver includes four medium-fast blanks. Constructed using cutting-edge graphene technology, these rods offer impressive depth, fast recovery speeds, and smooth bending curves for outstanding casting performance. With a unique flex profile just over 3/4, these blanks excel under moderate loads, providing gentle presentations and extended casting distances when targeting your dream fish. Whether fishing for trout, grayling, or sea trout in coastal waters, these rods deliver the precision, control, and power needed to adapt to various environments. Their balanced combination of sensitivity and strength makes them ideal for the demanding conditions of different casting styles and fishing situations. The unique molecular structure of graphene offers a perfect blend of power and sensitivity, giving fly fishers the confidence to handle challenging casts and detect subtle bites. Whether you're fishing for trout, grayling, or sea trout, these graphene rods, combined with the new Switch-Flex System handle, provide the performance and feel needed for a variety of fly fishing adventures, from small streams to larger rivers and coastal waters.
In short, if you're looking for an extremely sensitive rod that still packs plenty of power for casting and fighting fish, the Arctic Silver RISE is the perfect choice!

First of all, the Norwegian manufacturer ArcticSilver is known for a truly innovative range of fly rods. All of these rods have one unique feature in common: the so-called Free-Flex-System including the Quick-Lock reel seat. This patented design allows the blank to swing inside the handle, which creates outstanding casting and fish fighting properties. In fact, ArcticSilver offers many different models that are suitable for a variety of different fly fishing disciplines – whether casting delicate dry flies for trout or massive streamers for large predators. In addition, ArcticSilver also presents a large selection of modern fly lines that have a very thin diameter due to their so-called Micro Diameter (MD) design. This design allows record-breaking casting distances thanks to minimum friction in the rod guides and hardly any air resistance. In fact, these advantages are not only noticeable in combination with an ArcticSilver fly rod, but also with rods from other manufacturers.
