Fly Rod advice 10 Years, 9 Months ago
|
|
|
I need some advice.
I recently lost my beloved Sage 8.5' 5wt in a kayak mishap at Almanor. (Very lucky that is all I lost....long story.) So for the first time in over a decade I am in the market for a new fly rod. I am looking for a 2 piece 8.5' 5wt. I have not kept pace with developments in fly rods so I thought I would ask for some suggestions. Preferably under $500.
Any ideas?

Thanks Paul. We are in Chico for the Holiday (visiting the granddaughter) so I'll have to check them out. Is that what you fish with?

My previous 5wt was a Powell I bought from Press. That one went over a large waterfall in AK. Yet another good story.....
I am hoping for a longer life for the next one. No more dramatic endings.
