Can a fly rod really change your life? Depends on how much of a life you have outside of fishing

When it comes to understanding the latest sub-surface fishing techniques, few people know more than Kelly Galloup - which is why we asked him to help us develop the High Stick Drifter. Designed specifically for today's advanced nymph fishing methods, they feature a unique lightweight tip that reduces angler fatigue when the rod is held high for long periods of time, while emphasizing sensitivity for better strike detection. High Stick Drifter rods also feature SCVI graphite in lower sections for added power with reduced weight and St. Croix's proprietary ART™ and IPC™ technology. And the balance? Incredible. Can these rods change your life? Yea. We think so.
