I’ve used this rod in both still waters and moving streams. The medium fast action handles both dry flies and nymphing well. The grip is comfortable and the matte finish looks great. It’s become my go-to rod for weekend trips.
Donna Carr –
The transition between dry flies and indicators is smooth. The composite and cork blend grip feels solid, and the smoke guides are easy to clean. A bit heavier than expected for a 5wt, but still manageable.
Sonia Miller –
Great balance between sensitivity and power. I use it for trout and small bass in streams. The anodized reel seat holds up well, and the rod doesn’t feel stiff even in fast currents.
