This rod, reel and case combo is definitely worth the money. I’d been trawling for a fly rod and decided to give this one a go. The rod is good quality. All of the guides are firmly attached and each section fits smoothly into its mate. The reel is solidly built and has leader, line and backing all spooled and ready to go. I really like the hard case too. It has a separate sleeve for each rod section and a handle for carrying. It also has two d-ring attachments by the handle if you want to add a sling and carry it over your shoulder. All said, I feel like I got a good deal given that I got rod, reel, case, leader, line, and backing all for about $110. I’m still waiting for the rest of my tackle to arrive so I can’t tell you how it feels to use it yet, but I’ll get back to you later on that.
4/1/15 – I’ve played around with it a few times and it’s pretty nice. It casts pretty well (once you get the hang of it) and is very sensitive. I can jiggle the rod just a tiny bit and the fly will bounce on the water. I haven’t caught any fish yet but that’s more my fault than the rod’s! After using it I’m still very happy with my purchase.

This four-piece outfit is perfect for some of my fly-fishing excursions. I usually have to drive several hours to reach access to my lakes, so carrying this outfit in the car is easy and safer – less likely to break a tip. Also, I generally have to hike in to the water’s edge, and sometimes through heavy brush with a float-tube. Since this outfit breaks down to only about 2 & 1/2 feet, it’s easy to manage in heavy cover.
What a catch!,
