By Golden Trout Enthusiast from Reno, NV on 09/10/2009 Pros: Accurate Casting, Easy To Transport, Good Tip Action Best Uses: Fly Fishing, River Fishing, Small Fish Describe Yourself: Avid Fisher Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: I used this rod for a pack trip into the Sierras, and since it had minimal weight and broke down so well, it was easy to transport.
I used it to fish both lakes and small streams, and it worked well for both. It doesn't throw the line out very far for lake fishing (but it is only a 7 ft. 4 wt) but you shouldn't buy this rod expecting it to!
Highly recommended. Very accurate rod and highly adjustable to your fishing needs.
By VF from Woodinville, WA on 09/03/2009 Pros: Accurate Casting, Easy To Transport, Flexible, Good Tip Action, Sensitive Describe Yourself: Casual Fisher Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: This is a really gorgeous rod, well designed, packable, a joy to fish with. My only gripe is that, while it came marked as a Baden Powell Special Edition, it did not have a Rosewood reel seat - the reel seat was a satin black that looked just like the rest of the rod. I guess that's not really a big deal on such a lovely rod, but if they're going to advertise exotic hardwoods, then it should have just that. Otherwise, a great value - you will love this rod!
Looking forward to the next generation By moosaki from WV Eastern Panhandle on 08/21/2009 Pros: Accurate Casting, Attractive, Durable, Easy To Transport, Flexible, Good Tip Action, Sensitive Best Uses: Fly Fishing, Ocean Fishing, River Fishing, Spey Describe Yourself: Avid Fisher Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: Great rod and futuristic company. Very portable with a strong case. Fits of the 6 sections are nice and tight.Good cork and reel seat. this is a tough rough and ready rig. Perfect for salt water back bay and large river fish like steelhead and salmon. It casts nicely and is stiff but flexible. The look, finnish and guides are different from my other 8 fly rods 3-12 Wt. It is accurate and will travel to Aruba in December. Check this company out on the Net.
Different and definitly a crossover By moosaki from Eastern WV Panhandle, Aruba & Florida on 08/20/2009 Pros: Accurate Casting, Durable, Easy To Transport, Flexible, Good Tip Action, Sensitive Best Uses: Fly Fishing, Large Fish, Ocean Fishing, River Fishing, Small Fish Describe Yourself: Avid Fisher Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: This is fly rod number nine. I have everything from 3-12#wts. This is 9#wt no. 2. I like the portability, flat finish green with black and red wrappings. The guides and glass are very modern. I will likely pair it up to 2 9wt. reels and a spinning reel. I see it as excellent with big river fish and salt water back bay species. Casts well and is accurate. Stiff full flex action.
By Avalanche Fisher from Rancho Cucamonga CA on 08/09/2009 Pros: Accurate Casting, Durable, Easy To Transport, Flexible, Good Tip Action, Sensitive Best Uses: Fly Fishing, Large Fish, River Fishing, Small Fish Describe Yourself: Casual Fisher Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: I have owned this rod for several years now, and it performs flawlessly. I generally fish for trout in streams with a few lakes when I can. I usually go after trout but recently have started fly fishing for Bass and use this same rod. I have caught fish up to 10 pounds on it with ease. I love the sensitivity of this rod! When you catch small fish it feels like it's a big fish, when you have a big one on it's just amazing! This is only the 2nd rod I have owned, first one was just a cheapo but once I knew fly fishing was for me I bought a better rod and this one caught my eye. As for any cons, I have none.
