Fitzgerald Fishing Flats Class Series Spinning Rods

Catch More Inshore Giants

The Fitzgerald Flats Class Inshore Spinning Rod was born from the collaboration between pro saltwater angler Capt. C.A. Richardson and master rod builder Trevor Fitzgerald, built specifically for anglers who live for the challenge of shallow-water fishing. Designed for total control and responsiveness, it delivers the perfect blend of lightweight sensitivity and raw strength — giving you the confidence to make pinpoint casts and handle hard-charging inshore predators.

Every detail is optimized for performance. The Flats Class Series transmits every vibration so you can feel subtle pickups, yet provides the backbone to turn tarpon, snook, or trout before they reach cover. Its balanced construction keeps it light in hand while maintaining the durability needed for long days on the flats and countless battles on the water.

Fine-tuned for artificial lure applications, each rod enhances casting accuracy, lure presentation, and fighting power. Built on decades of combined expertise, it’s a rod that helps you fish smarter, react faster, and make every cast count — because when you’re chasing inshore trophies, precision is everything.
