Redington at AvidMax

Redington has been making fly fishing gear since 1992 with a simple goal: real performance that is easy to pick up and easy to afford. Now part of the Far Bank family, the brand pairs classic looks with modern materials across rods, reels and ready-to-fish kits. AvidMax carries Redington from the Wrangler and Original kits for new anglers to the Classic Trout, Vice, Big Game and Butter Stick rods and the Behemoth reel.

Why fish a Redington rod?

Approachable gear since 1992

Redington has offered fly fishing gear since 1992. The team describes itself as anglers and adventurers first, and it designs with every kind of fly fisher in mind, from first-timers to seasoned anglers. The brand looks back at the sport's history and forward at new materials, then asks how to make gear more useful, more affordable and easier to use. That thinking shows up in classic touches like rosewood reel seat inserts and yellow glass blanks, matched with saltwater-ready hardware and protective rod tubes. Redington is part of Far Bank, which handles its warranty and repair service.

Graphite, glass and tough reels

Redington builds each rod around the material that fits its job. The Big Game and EDC use Nano Resin graphite for added sensitivity and fighting power. The Vice uses a multi-modulus carbon blank for quick recovery and accurate casts. The Butter Stick goes the other way with T-Glass, a fiberglass build that is stronger than typical glass while keeping a smooth, classic medium action. On the reel side, the Behemoth uses a die-cast body and a carbon fiber drag package, and Redington calls it the most powerful drag in its class. Wrangler and Classic Trout kits come rigged with RIO fly line.
