REDINGTON - "Bring It Back with the Butter Stick"

Posted on April 20 2022

I didn't catch a lot of news out of IFTD but did know that Redington was rolling out their next generation of glass with an update to the Butter Stick.  If you're keeping score, this is the third generation of the Butter Stick fly rods and it's great to see Redington continue to update this series with a fresh look for 2022.

An 8' 5-weight Butter Stick arrived on my doorstep recently and I'll be getting it on the water soon.  I really like the look of the translucent yellow blank and that this generation is four-piece instead of three.  These fly rods have been kinda tough to travel with until now.   


From the Redington presser...

New for Spring 2022, Redington has completely revamped the fiberglass cult-classic BUTTER STICK. Its fresh new look carries a strong nostalgic design from the days of shag carpet, roller disco, and Hendrix rippin'.  And like all things good and vintage, it's as aesthetically pleasing as it is fun and functional.  Whether you're fishing blue lines for brook trout, slingin' dries on a tasty tailwater, or chasing bucket mouths at your local bass pond - the BUTTER STICK bend will have you buggin' out.

The all-new BUTTER STICK comes with a Translucent Sunshine Yellow blank which looks as radical as it feels in hand. Redington’s fiberglass T-glass construction improves overall rod strength and our Heritage Design provides a classic medium action casting stroke—taking you back to a time when living in the moment was everything.

Redington has added new upgrades to the handle, including a traditional half wells for a more comfortable grip, a cork reel seat for (even more) retro styling, and a threaded lock nut to keep your reel exactly where you need it. The BUTTER STICK is now a 4-piece rod for smooth travel and convenient storage.  
 
The BUTTER STICK comes in three sizes: 7’ 3-weight, 7’6” 4-weight, and 8’ 5-weight.  Included are a rod tube and lifetime warranty.  These are priced at $279.99.
