    • Love. Pure.
Color: Matte Vintage Brown - 5WT 9' (4PC)
This is my 4th Moonshine rod, and I can’t imagine fishing with anything else. These rods are an incredible value. They have excellent components, and rival much more expensive rods without giving up a thing.

    • Good looking rod
Color: Matte Vintage Brown - 4WT 8'6" (4PC)
Very accurate with a Rio perception fly line. Better with close to mid range cast. Handsome rod but as far as fighting a fish it is not a good. Landing trout numbers is not good with rod. However I am more a fiberglass rod user.

    • A very pleasant surprise
Color: Matte Vintage Brown - 5WT 9' (4PC)
I found Moonshine Rods while researching for blanks to build a flyrod to replace one that got donated to the fish gods. I spent 3 days researching Moonshine after finding them here on Amazon. I've enjoyed fast action flyrods for years, but as I get older I find I like a little slower, less demanding action. The Drifter seemed like "the one" to me. I ordered a 9' 5weight. 2 days later, I was opening a box to reveal something I didnt expect. A VERY NICE looking rod appeared as the packaging went away. Initially, you are attracted to the burl wood insert on the reel seat, then the cork handle, and then your eyes start wandering over the guides thread windings. Beautifully executed, no gaps, no lumps and well done top coat finish. After receiving my new reel and line, I strung up this gem and headed to the yard to see how this baby casts. Few false casts to feel out the action and let her rip. That's when I noticed something you don't see even on high dollar factory rods unless its a custom build on a mass produced blank. Most rods don't have enough line guides. This causes the line to sag between the guides, slowing down line speed and making casting long distance difficult. This rod has more line guides than most 9' rods, and if you load the action up statically, you'll find the line follows the blank perfectly! The Drifter casts effortlessly for me to 50-60 feet. and further with a bit more effort. Well done Moonshine Rod Co, for actually building a flyrod correctly!!! The extra tip section is a nice bonus as well. I'm looking forward to actually fishing this rod. At 200 bucks, I wouldnt call this a "budget" rod, but I would call it a very high value/per dollar spent rod. You can spend more, you could spend less, but this rod hits right in the feels for the best bang/$$ IMO. BTW, customer service is unbelievable. I emailed a question at 6:30 PM mountain time, I got a response and hour later. How many business answer emails after hours? These folks are awesome ... show more

Long time fly fisherman here, owned Sage and Orvis rods, which are nice in their own right, however this rod will make you think twice about spending more on a big name brand. Moonshine is quickly finding its way to that short list of solid fly rods. This rod is exquisitely built and a jewel to look at. I bought the 6wt 9 ft and it is a dream to cast. Loads up and sends it with precision and delicate presentation. Trout seem to like it. 🤩. Buy two before the world figures it out and they go up in price. ... show more

Super happy with this rod. Glad there’s an avenue for me to keep this in the quiver; even when breaks happen. Longevity of a product like this is a major plus. Great build quality. Working great for anything smaller than a larger bead head streamer. 5wt 9ft

Casts wonderful and the dry fly delivery is high class rod worthy. I got the 10'-5wt and couldn't be happier. Plus it's very sensitive so you can feel the hit when euro nymphing. So far it is my favorite fly rod I have.
