5.0 out of 5 stars Well worth the money - Flyfishing benefits greatly from knowledge and/or instruction.
This is my first and, as of yet, only fly fishing outfit.This combo is very capable. I caught a pond bluegill within my first 3 minutes of flyfishing. I then pulled out 3 more within about 45 minutes, all on one of the included flies in this package.My only gamefish to date is the 14" Rainbow Trout in the included picture (don't let the depth of field fool you, it was a nice size and I was elated). I've only river-fished with it twice.I am a complete novice at flyfishing. I have spent over 100 hours watching videos on the popular video websites by Mad River Outfitters, primarily, and by Orvis Flyfishing Schools. After months of trial and error, I am starting to feel like I know enough to be competent.From what I've learned:To start, when assembling your rod, start with the tip section and affix it to the mid section by starting 45 degrees off and then pushing it together and twisting until the line guides align. This is very important. you can jam it together as hard as you want, but if you don't twist at the same time that you are pushing them together, your rod WILL come apart from the casting motion. I learned this in an MRO video.Second, the included flyline and leader don't come with loops. You'll need to either buy new ones, or learn how to tie a nail knot. I printed a nail knot jig on my 3D printer in order to affix my leader to my flyline. I am currently using a Scientific Anglers 6wt Weight-forward flyline and a RIO Fly Fishing Power flex-Plus 9' 4X Fishing Leader (match the Flyline to your Rod and the Leader to the size of your flies, thanks Brian from MRO!).Third, if you try to learn your flycast on a pond, you're going to "crud up" your fly line and it won't shoot through the guides well at all. Buy a flyline cleaner/dressing kit to get your flyline to behave smoothly. It's a lot easier to cast on still water when on a bank than in a river where your fly is drifting down the current and you're trying to keep your balance on slippery rocks.Fourth, watch tons of videos on flycasting and flyfishing in general. They'll teach you knots, how to set up your gear, how to use your gear, and how to find fish.Fifth, have fun. I catch a lot of pond fish while practicing my casts and will practice in my yard without a fly/hook tied to the end of the leader, just to get better at my casting techniques. Flyfishing is easy to do (just pick it up and then put it down) but takes a lot of knowledge and practice to do well. The enjoyment in the hobby is in the pursuit of mastering the skill.Happy fishing!

5.0 out of 5 stars still use to this day great cheap rod
best bang for the buck
5.0 out of 5 stars Fly Rod
Very good for a beginner rod!
3.0 out of 5 stars Reel is decent, rod is just ok, line is worthless
The reel is the highlight of this package, but that's not really a good thing. The rod matters much more than the reel for fly fishing, which is why (more expensive) combos from big brands like Orvis and Redington come with cheap plastic reels. Any value priced combo is going to cut corners somewhere, but you want the best rod you can get for the money, and this ain't it.Even at this very affordable price, it's just not a great value. The rod has very little feel, which will make it harder to cast for a beginner, and easier to develop bad habits. The included line is low quality, and it's incredibly short. The carrying case and flies are bargain bin quality as well, which is understandable at the price but doesn't add much value in my opinion.Don't get me wrong, you could probably set this up out of the box, take it to a local pond, and catch some panfish in the shallows. But the Martin Caddis Creek or Eagle Claw Featherlight are much better options in this price bracket, especially considering the cost of a new fly line.
5.0 out of 5 stars Everything you need to start
Rod seems well built, joints are solid. Reel is good. It did come with a plain white floating line. I did buy a weight forward 5 weight floating line to put on this combo. That came with backing, tippets, the works.Overall I love the case to keep everything in one place and keep it protected.Rod has a good feel to it. At 68 learning to fly fish was not in my plans. But I tie a lot of flys so it seems like something I should be doing.If I made a mistake anywhere it was not going heavy enough. There are no trout within 200 miles.So my most likely catch is going to be a 20 to 30 lb Carp. I'm sure it will be a pile of thrills.And with a little luck maybe I can even learn to cast this thing.And if I can't I'll go back to fishing my flys with a spinning rod and a water bobber. For the price I just could not seem to go wrong giving it a try. Glad I did at this point. You only live once, go for the gusto!
4.0 out of 5 stars Not bad at all
Welp start with the good i guess. Its 3 pieces i like that the case is good material and can nicely store the rod and reel and can accommodate a small tackle box and some extras. The reel seems of nice quality and looks good feels good, same goes for the pole itself i like the color the feel and the action on it although i have yet to use it i practiced with it outback to me it seems very nice for the price in my eyes as im new to this i wasnt looking to break the bank to end up not 1 being physical able to 2 not liking it lolOn to the not so fun stuff i had to spool the reel and tie the leader myself and adjust the leader as they just give you a bunch to work with and two flies like i said not so fun not bad just not fun all in all i think its a win for a beginner.
Buen carrete, buena caña pero...

Good price
Good price
would definitely recommend
The rod its self is perfect. My only gripe is I would have prefered the line to have been on the reel. Apart from that I'm very happy
could be ok BUT ONLY 2 flies in the package AND no backing line
we shall see ones I buy the backing and set it up. Rod looks ok
Nice light rod, reel not great
The rod is quite nice for the price. The reel does not come fully setup, and it comes without backing line - so you will need to buy that separately and then setup the reel yourself! The fly line also comes without a hoop to connect the leader which again is not great and a bit of a hassle. Not ideal for a kit designed for beginners. The 2 flies it comes with feel a bit poor. Overall this is an OK kit and I will probably just use it as a backup or one to take for a friend.
