A quick rumination on the new Scott G Series fly rod

It was always going to be hard to top my Scott G2 as my favourite Mataura rod, but the feel, responsiveness and accuracy of the new G series 8’8” 4wt has upped the bar. If you’re after an all rounder, then the Scott Radian is the no brainer, however if you live in Southland, or in proximity of a number of creeks, streams or small to medium sized rivers where presentation is the difference between success and “a pleasant day on the river”, then the new Scott G series fly rod will rock your world.
