High quality rod at half price! By PCB from Canada on 12/29/2009 Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: Rod is a beautiful rod, clearly of high quality. Feels like fast action. I purchased this for my daughter for Xmas. It goes very well with the Ross 5 wt reel, nicely balanced combination. Not a beginner rod.

By troutman from San Jose Ca. on 05/13/2009 Pros: Good all around action, Great caster, price, Well made rod Best Uses: Great pack rod, Just fish it you'll know Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: I bought the rod for short pack trips into the sierra's (my two piece sage rods are to bulky at times)I thought I'd try the 4 piece thing out.Well got to say i was impressed with the construction,Good cork,nice reel seat w/nickle hardware,10 guides with 1 stripper(realy 2 strippers dont count the second)and it cast's real well,action on the rod was very good. very happy and supprised.[$]
By Marcus from North Carolina on 05/07/2009 Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: I have an older two piece, two tip Powell rod that cost over $400 twenty years ago. This new SSL rod casts just as nicely, finish and fittings of similar quality, has the packing advantages of a 4 piece and is less than 1/4 of the price of my old rod. How can you beat that?
By indy from northeast TN on 05/04/2009 Pros: Action on rod is medium, Finish of rod is good, Handling is good, Quality of rod is good Best Uses: Flyfishing for trout Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: Use it for fishing larger streams for 12 inch + trout
Quality for the price is better than expected
Handles and looks like higher priced rods
