"Great gear at a Great price!"

— Jack S. (5/5)

Great Little Rod

"Great little rod when matched with a Rio line like the creek or gold standard. Flicks a fly right to the spot, senses all the riffs in the riffle and has plenty of back bone to set solid. This rod is fun to fish a small creek and get true sensitive fishing experience out of a small creek run."

— Andy V. (5/5)

Just a great all around

"Just a great all around fly rod for trout. . . ! Ive had my 490-4 CT for years and love it for the smaller waters in CO. . Ive tried other 5wts and after much trial and error and expense just came back to what i know i like and bought the 5wt 9ft length. . . casts gentle enough for great dry presentation but can also throw hopper droppers, streamers and nymphs. . ."

— Chad G. (5/5)
