OUR PHILOSOPHY The goal of every Gatti engineer is to provide you with the most responsive fly rods in the world. We accomplish this by selecting the finest materials available anywhere and create a fly rod that is lighter in the hand , more powerful and yet smoother than any fly rod you've ever had the pleasure to cast. It's easy to create a fly rod that is powerful and reliable if you don't consider weight as a factor. In fact, many of the "premium" fly rods available today are created that way. It's more difficult to create a fly rod that is light, powerful and reliable. Here at Gatti, we consider weight to be extremely important to the responsive capabilities of a fly rod. Our combination of the best materials, unique tapers and a revolutionary process that results in uniform wall thickness on each section of the rod blank, results in a fly rod that is more precise and virtually no spline to interfere with casting performance. Add the fact the Gatti fly rods are lighter than other fly rods in their class, and you have a fly rod that's a precision tool, pleasure to cast all day and will never leave your arm feeling tired. In the world, there are pretty fly rods and there are performance fly rods. Gatti fly rods are as nice to look at as they are to cast. Hand crafted reels seats with exotic woods are combined with the finest hard chrome guides to create a work of art.

This concept must be respected. In fact, it cannot be modified, for a rod is strictly bound to the size fly line for which it is designed. The action of a fly rod is the way in which its power is distributed, the character of the fly rod is reflected in the way it bends while being cast. The action of the fly rod should match the personal preference, style, and casting ability of the fly fisherman. Fly Rods of equal weight can be slower or faster depending on the action. In order to serve the need of all fly fishermen, we produce fly rods with three different actions. TA Tip action fast action in a very light blank IA Intermediate action precision in an easier casting rod PA Progressive action fast and powerful The FRX series is the most advanced expression of our production. The project of these intermediate action rods represents the synthesis of the characteristics of the FRD series. For every single section we have studied the taper according to the most suitable mat order to get the best performances linked to the most lightness, handling, accurancy and reliabilit blank is made through our UTS process with different materials for every single section. This design puts us in the front of the fly rod production industry.

This technologically advanced graphite is combined with a smooth, progressive taper to produce fly rods that present even the smallest flies delicately, and protect the tinest leaders, without sacrificing performance, accuracy or distance. The dark sapphire-blue blanks are finished with high quality brier-wood reel seats and single foot snake guides to produce a rod that's powerful, light, beautiful and smooth casting. The FRC series of rods are perfect for anglers who use long leaders and delicate flies to fish small streams and spring creeks for wary trout.

These are not the rods the average fisherman would want to use. Indeed, there are fishermen outside the professional tournament circles who would undersatnd why a spinning rod could so much. But, our constant research and solid commitment to the best quality would not allow us to use standard materials or offer any product that isn't absolutely the best product on the market.

They must be lightweight, offer flawless performance, and distinguish themselves as a product that is a step above the rest of the market. Through a combination of material choices, precision engineering and careful craftmanship, we are able to offer reels that do just that. Every Gatti reel is machined from a solid block of aircraftgrade aluminium, using state-of-the-art machinery for a flawless fit. All aluminium parts are hard anodized to a 50 micron depth and to a 62 Rockwell hardness to create a finish that is comparable to tempered steel in hardness and abrasion resistance. Through this process, we are able to create the toughest, lightest precision anti-reverse reel available in today's market. 10 FLY REELS rews and other components are made from stainless steel and brass, making our reels saltwater resistant. e smooth disc drag is made from a combination of teflon and vulcolan, and is resistant to temperatures up 300 C. This superior drag allows the fisherman the opportunity to chase fish many times larger than her reels could handle, and to do with the confidence that his or her reel will live up to the task. hen you look at a Gatti fly reel, you may think it looks simple compared to many other reels on the arket. In some ways this is true. It does have fewer components than many reels, but fewer components ve fewer chances to fail. You will not find jewels or heavy attachments on the reel to add to the weight, t you will experience jewel-like precision performance. No banners, no lights, no glowing additions, just re, smooth, tough, flawless performance MODEL 1 (Direct-drive only) This model was designed for anglers who fish for trout in classic light line situations. It's a perfect choice for a 6'6" to 7'6" rod in a 2,3 or 4 weight. The ultimate spring creek reel. Weight 95 g (3.4 oz) Diameter 65 mm (2.55 in) Capacity WF4F + 20 yd of 20 lb backing.
