The Whistytwig Riser 602 Blue is designed for anglers who want a lightweight, capable rod that makes fishing simple, enjoyable and rewarding. At 1.8 metres (6'), with a Medium Light action and a 2–4kg (4–10lb) line rating, the 602 is an easy-going all-rounder suited to a wide range of everyday fishing. Its 2–18g lure rating gives you plenty of flexibility, whether you’re casting small hardbodies, soft plastics, spinners or other light presentations.

We designed the Riser Series around the idea that becoming a better angler should be part of the fun. The 602 offers a responsive feel without demanding specialist skills, making it a great choice for someone starting out while still providing the performance to grow with them as their confidence develops.

At just 115g, it is light in the hand and comfortable for a relaxed session on the water. Whether you’re fishing a local creek, exploring a lake, chasing estuary species or simply enjoying a few hours outdoors, the Riser 602 Blue is built to encourage more casts, more confidence and, hopefully, more fish.
