Stalker LEGEND Fly Rod
New Weights Now Available – 10′ 6wt & a Euro Nymphing rod 10′ 3wt
We are proudly celebrating our 25 Year Anniversary!
To commemorate the achievement, I wanted something special, something that reflected everything about Hurleys Fly Fishing and what the Stalker Fly Fishing range stands for, quality and value.
I wanted THE best quality range of fly rods available.
I wanted crispness to instantly pick up a line from the water, I wanted power to turn a strong fish from a snag, I wanted to feel so you could cast with your eyes closed, I wanted a finish that had a minimal reflection, I wanted fittings that were extremely light, and all using the highest quality graphite that allowed it to be THE lightest in its class.
It has taken some time, but so do all great things, and we are about to release what I think is the world’s best fly rod range.
When naming this model we couldn’t help but go back to where we started, with the best value for quality rod available in Australia and New Zealand 25 years ago, introducing the NEW Stalker Fly Fishing LEGEND 25 Year Anniversary edition.
Some facts on the NEW LEGEND…
We have used a blend of the highest quality Toray carbon, around 70%, and this is what allows the rod to feel almost inconceivably light in your hand. Now the weight is one thing, but when blended with around 30% of the highest quality Mitsubishi carbon, this is where we get the crispness, power, and strength needed in a rod that will be awesome for many years.
The No Flash/Matt Black blank simply eliminates rod flash and keeps you well hidden in all scenarios.
We used 316 stainless single leg guides to help eliminate friction by keeping the line off the blank, with a silicone insert stripping guide for maximum shootability.
The ultra-high-performance aluminium matt black reel seat weighs only 12 grams with a stunning green carbon-fibre insert made from Toray.
Comes with our Stalker guarantee and $30 replacement parts*
The bag has the reel slit to keep the parts separated even with leaving the rod and reel together.
A solid protective triangular rod tube to ensure it doesn’t roll all over the place.

Max Vajarah –
I cast every rod in the store before I chose this one. The best 5wt I have ever cast. Power, presentation, weight, feel, it is my go to rod for every situation.
Peter Johanssen –
I was tossing up on another brand but ended up buying two for NZ. The 5 as my dry fly rod and the 6 fast as my big fish rod and I have to say that I am so glad I did. Thanks Stu for convincing me, money saved is money well spent.
Craig Hutchinson –
I bought the 6wt Fast for NZ this season and I landed two 8’s and a 12 pounder on the first day with it. Really happy with it.
Christopher Chou –
The best stream rod I own, and I own a few! Ecstatic with it.
Nik Travers –
I bought the 2wt for the twig waters and I just love the power it has to punch under the trees with a dry. Absolutely perfect small water rod and just so light. Well done its better than I imagined.
Brian Keough –
The write up doesn’t do this rod justice! I won’t say what brand I had, but they all went on EBay and are now replaced with 3 of these. Can’t speak highly enough about them. Well done Hurleys.
