Bear River – Flagship Linen Legacy Fly Rod
Where soul, story, and Sierra waters come together.
The Bear River Linen Legacy Series is more than a fly rod—it's a tribute to the ancestral waters that inspired this company’s birth. Built on the natural-fiber NFC Linen 864-4 blank, this 8’6” 4-weight rod pairs heritage materials with modern taper design, creating a tool of quiet precision, organic rhythm, and rare beauty.
Wrapped in dusty pine green, tipped in gold and tan, and anchored by a custom live oak burl reel seat harvested near the Bear River, every element of this rod tells a local story. From the agate stripping guide to the engraved serial number, no detail is overlooked.
Handcrafted for the fly fisher who values connection over convention—and story over speed.
This is the flagship rod of Bear River Fly Rods. Only 20 will ever be made.
Features:
NFC Linen 864-4 blank (moderate-fast action, 8’6” 4wt)
California live oak burl reel seat with nickel silver hardware
Flor-grade cork cigar grip with vintage accent
Vintage smoked ECO Snake Brand guides
Agate stripping guide in pale green swirl
Custom wraps in dusty pine, gold, and tan
Serialized and signed with certificate of authenticity
Includes custom rod sock, waxed canvas tube, and story card
