By Allen from Wales on 01/23/2009 Pros: Accurate Casting, Easy To Transport Best Uses: Fly Fishing, Large Fish, River Fishing, Small Fish Describe Yourself: Avid Fisher Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: I possess major brands of expensive fly rod and travel into "Slovenia" and catch some trophy fish on large and small flies, with airline restrictions these rods fit into your hand luggage and do not have to be taken into the hold. I love em. I have now bought another MarchBrown road for use in the UK and elsewhere. For the price of a Premium name you could posisbly own 3 of these rods and be better prepared for any occasion.

By KD from Oceanside, NY on 11/28/2008 Cons: Breaks Easily, Poor Construction Describe Yourself: Avid Fisher Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend Comments: Rod tip broke in 2 places and tip top fell off on its first use. I purchased a 7pc 8 wt and used it for steelhead. Within 1 hr for no apparent reason the tip was down by the fly.
Fantastic rods, customer service By bone doc from U.K. of Great Britain on 09/25/2008 Pros: Accurate Casting, Easy To Transport, Good Tip Action Describe Yourself: Avid Fisher Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: I have an executive performance rod by March Brown which after much use broke at the tip segment. An e-mail to March Brown explaining what had happened resulted in a replacement rod (not just the segment) being sent across the Atlantic within a couple of weeks. Their customer service puts many companies to shame. I love this rod and whilst it feels a little handle heavy compared to other rods, once a reel is on the balance is great and out casts more famous brands that I have.

Beautiful, well made rods! By Whirligigmike from New York State on 05/05/2008 Pros: Accurate Casting, Durable, Easy To Transport, Good Tip Action, Handy nice case, Sensitive Best Uses: Fly Fishing, River Fishing Describe Yourself: Avid Fisher Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: I own a dozen fly rods, from #5 to #11. Two years ago I acquired a March Brown #6 pack rod for motorcycle/backpacking use on trout and smallmouth bass. I liked it so much I bought a #8 for Largemouth bass.
I now rarely use any other rod. I make these two weights work for just about everything except Steelhead. These rods perform superbly!
I was sceptical that a 7 piece rod would perform as well as a 2 piece but they are great. The nice , short travel tube means no transportation problems, ever.
