We are so psyched about the Recon Fly Rods, and we want everyone to cast one for him- or herself. So, to add a little incentive, we’re running a month-long promotion—from tomorrow, June 6, through Monday July 6—with some very cool prizes. All you have to do is go to your nearest Orvis store or dealer (find it here) or an endorsed guide and give any of the 18 Recon models a whirl. Then you’ll be given a special code you can use to enter the sweepstakes online.

Here’s the list of prizes that will be awarded via a random drawing held on July 17:
- Four Grand Prizes: A limited-edition USA-made CFO reel, featuring an engraving of the Recon “topo” design (see above).
- Five First Prizes: Orvis Safe Passage Carry-It-All bag.
- Ten Second Prizes: Orvis Safe Passage Sling Pack.
- Twelve Third Prizes: Orvis Hydros HD Trout Lines.

Some great prizes available in the Recon Test-Cast Sweepstakes
Those HD fly lines are the bomb. Looks like that purchase of Scientific Anglers is paying off.
I just bought a recon 5wt, love it! Test casted about a dozen times before pulling the trigger. Can I be entered for the reel draw?
Keep an eye out on the blog in the coming days for another way to enter, Reid.
Okay. I’ve cast the RECON, got the code – but where do I go online to enter the contest?
