The Origin II delivers the latest in design tolerances, size, and functionality and incorporates our beautifully smooth sealed carbon drag system offering over 25lbs drag pressure.

The drag system has been optimized for minimal free spooling as well as remaining exceptionally smooth with ultra low startup inertia.

      Snowbee's Prestige G-XS range of fly rods bring the latest carbon fibre developments - Graphene. This amazing new technology really is a game changer and propels snowbee to the top of the leader board, in terms of performance and innovation. Graphenes atoms are 300 times smaller than the smallest nanoparticle, resulting in an even denser carbon mat, with virtually no air pockets, enhanced by the use of autoclave ovens, which bake the blanks under high pressure, to create a lighter, stronger blank.

      The lightweight aluminium reel fittings have a hard anodised silver/gold finish and feature stunning maple burl wood inserts. This beautiful wood displays a range of colours and grain patterns, making each rod quite unique and individual. The rich bronze colour of the blanks is complemented by self-colour whippings with a subtle single band of bronze whipping.

      • 4-Piece ultra lightweight Graphene carbon blanks
      • Fast action with high lift snakes
      • Includes cotton drill sleeve and cordura tube.

In addition to river, small stillwater and reservoir rods, there are also longer, lower line weight models, appealing to river fishers who favour the lighter Eastern European and Czech nymph styles of fishing.

        Finished in a lustrous deep olive colour, with self-colour whippings, subtle gold graphics and brushed aluminium reel seats, with olive green burl wood insert complementing the colour of the blanks. Combine all of these and you have a rod with timeless appeal.

                      New for 2023 is the lightest fly reel that we have ever designed and produced. The Origin II Click Series is the perfect small stream fly reel that offers clean modern aesthetics with a much loved click and pawl drag system.

                      Our approach was to take our renowned Origin II design and strip it right down to give avid small-stream anglers that super lightweight fly reel with the same standard of quality that you can expect from RFF.

                      The same DNA-themed design ethos can also be seen in the Origin II Click, we added a hoop on the spool for extra strength and to give it a slightly more classical look. We specially tuned the sound of the click & pawl system to hit that perfect note, whether it is during retrieval or when a fish takes a longer run. It really does get the blood pumping hearing the distinct sound of a clicker reel screaming.

                      Tipping the scales at only 79 grams the Origin II is perfectly sized and weighted to pair up with most 0-3wt fly rods.

                      We look forward to sharing our passion for small stream fly fishing with you with this latest edition of the Origin II fly reel range.

                      The distinguished SKY G Fly Rod leverages technology in its quest to achieve fly rod perfection. Considered “the ultimate presentation rod” for finicky fish, the SKY G is crafted on a beautiful multi-modulus blank with a moderately fast action.

                      It’s wonderfully lightweight and eminently castable, and the addition of revolutionary G-Tec platelets takes it over the top. G-Tec is 10 times stronger than steel, and 5% as dense; incorporating this material into the rod blank further reduces the rod weight, greatly increases its strength, and because G-Tec is a highly efficient conductor of energy, adds extreme sensitivity and responsiveness.

                      Altogether, you’ll find the SKY G offers superb dampening and recovery, near-effortless casting, accuracy, and outstanding durability. Innovative top-of-the-line components include: REC Titanium Cerecoil stripper guides with zirconia inserts, REC Titanium recoil guides, AAAA flor grade cork, a skeletonized aluminum reel seat, double uplocking rings with nylon bushings, and burled blackwood inserts. Includes a plush rod sock and aluminum tube. Lifetime warranty.
