Leland on the Redington CPX 1137-4 Switch Rod
On mid-sized steelhead streams, whether you're
chucking indicators, leeches, or hair-wings, you should be using the Redington CPX
1137-4 Switch Rod. Two handed, direction-changing Skagit-style casts
are as easy and effective with this rod as simple overhead casts, so
depending on what's behind you, and what type of water you're fishing,
you can
present the fly in a variety of ways. What's more, switch rods
are really catching on with beach fishermen as well – rig with a
standard shooting head, and you can take this rod to the Montauk surf
for stripers. You’re stripping two handed, right? Might as well cast
with both of ‘em, too. You’ve got options with the Redington CPX 1137-4
Switch Rod, and options are a good thing.

Leland on Redington
Redington has steadily built an impressive reputation since opening its
operation in 1992. From day one, Redington tasked its business with the
lofty goal of producing high quality, high performance, and high value
fly fishing gear for uncompromising anglers around the world, a goal
many other manufacturing firms have tried to accomplish with little
success. Redington, however, has never strayed from its priorities, and
has met and exceeded its own stated expectations over the years. Today,
Redington is an extremely influential player in the fly fishing game,
outfitting anglers of all levels with well-designed, top-performing,
and incredibly durable fly fishing gear and technical clothing. All
goals, no matter the size or shape, are set to be accomplished, and
Redington's goal of becoming a heavy-hitting producer of
heavier-hitting fly fishing gear and clothing has been accomplished ...
and then some. In a word, Redington products are impressive.
Redington on CPX Fly Rods
No matter the fishery or the conditions, our new CPX Series fly rods
has something to offer everyone in every imaginable fishing situation.
The most important technological feature of the new CPX rods is the
Red.Core Technology being utilized in all models. The unique spiral
core wrap guarantees that all rods achieve the often sought after
combination of lightness and durability.

Founded in 1992, Redington has always brought innovation, performance,
and tremendous value to anglers worldwide. Our roots are now in the
Pacific Northwest where we have access to some of the most wonderful
fishing resources in the world.
Redington is a proud sponsor of Trout Unlimited, Federation of Fly
Fishers and the Take Me Fishing Program. Employees have also been
encouraged to become part of the Recreational Boating and Fishing
Foundation’s Angler’s Legacy, a program in which avid anglers pledge to
take a novice fishing at least once a year.
Recently, Redington joined the fight against Pebble Mine development in
Southwest Alaska's Bristol Bay, an area where the wilds of nature
provide sustenance and life to a region dependant on fisheries. We are
proud to join forces with Trout Unlimited Alaska and Felt Soul Media –
an award winning producer of fly fishing films – to produce a video
that will reveal the beauty and bounty of the pristine Bristol Bay
watershed and give a voice to the commercial, sport and subsistence
fishermen banding together to stop the proposed Pebble Mine.
