The new Orvis Recon feels like a rod that wants to do a lot, and do it without drama. Up front it has a touch more bend in the tip, so you get that nice “stable punch” of the line early in the stroke—more feel while leaning on the rod at longer casts, a smoother load when you’re not carrying a ton of line, and better touch when you’re trying to land a fly softly. It gives you feedback instead of that dead sensation some fast rods can have.
At the same time, the tip recovers with a slightly faster, firmer snap, so the whole rod still feels quick and modern. That little combo—tip that flexes a bit, but rebounds fast—keeps loops clean and stable, helps in the wind, and makes it easy to change direction or pick up and shoot line when you need to. The result is a confident feel: forgiving enough to make real-world fishing casts all day, but still crisp when you lean on it.
