Scott Session

“Packed with technology, loaded with fun.” Scott’s “fast with feel” action at a friendlier price, from an 8′ 3 weight for small streams to a 10′ 5 weight Scott calls a lake specialist’s rod.
Freshwater · 3–7 wt
Scott GT Series
$1,095 MSRP
The new generation of Scott’s classic G Series, 7’4″ to 9’8″, with “smooth progressive actions, tremendous feedback, and top notch tippet protection.” Scott calls the 8’10” 5 weight a “one rod to rule them all.”
Available in store at Anglers Den, a stocking Scott dealer with the entire Scott lineup.
