Know nothing about the Nautilus Feather Weight so can?t comment. Had a Ross Cimarron and did not like it. Would never buy another Ross. Have two Lamsons and love them both. However, changing...

I have not cast the three wgt but have cast the 7 wgt. My impression of the 7 wgt I cast was that it threw nice loops but was a rather heavy set up and I think over priced. I think there are a...
My wife has smaller hands. She's complained for years that my rods made her wrists sore after fishing for a couple of hours.
She's had professional casting instruction so she knows how to cast. ...
Don't know if this is true or not but I was told that the Pflueger President is the same reel as the Orvis Mach III except for a couple of cosmetic differences. Here's links for both. You can see...
I fish a lot of streamers. Probably have more than a two dozen different patterns in my fly boxes. If we exclude wooly buggers and Spey/Salmon/Steelhead etc. flies (which may/may not be separate...
So you think its unusual to fish for carp? How's this for unusual? I fish carp with a Spey rod.
IMHO a ?life time? warranty is totally useless and nothing more than a marketing scam.
I have several glass rods that I bought 40+ years ago with ?life time? warranties that aren?t worth the...
Someone mentioned Ross which is a very good reel. I compare them like this. The Ross is like a Cadillac and the Teton like an Abrams Tank. Like that tank the Teton is solid, dependable, nearly...
"Wow! That's a pretty ignorant thing to say, I'll take a Toyota over a Ford any day, and that's my opinion."
Wow! that's a pretty ignorant thing to say considering Toyota is built right here in...
These two rods should not be compared to each other. The St Croix is one of the best rods built. Certainly a far better value for your dollar.
The TFO is a piece of asian built garbage.
Did you hear about he east coast lawyer who committed suicide. When the police found him he was decked out head to toe in Orvis gear. The police had to dress him in women?s clothing to prevent his...
I own five St Croix LU rods including the rod you mentioned. I've cast/fished rods from every major manufacture and and the LU is thee rod I like the best of all of them.
For the price you...
Don't know anything about the Scott but the Winston is an outstanding spey rod. Probably one of the best made. If everything else is equal go with the Winston.
Over the years I've used all kinds of different tapers. Except for special situations I think the DT is the best design for both fishing and casting. It works better for short casts, roll casts...
There's a place in Big Sky, MT called Lone Mountain Ranch. Avoid it like the plague. Worst guide service imaginable.
Of the rods you mentioned I've either owned, fished with, or cast all but the Powell. My personal preference, the rod I measure all other rods against is the St Croix LU. I'm not saying its the best...
I think so highly of the TFO that I?d recommend it to Osama Bin Laden, Saddam Hussein, Muammar Khadafi, Dubya, and Martha Stewart.
To people I like I recommend the Sage rod.
I think a 5 wgt can be fished successfully on a spring creek. I believe a stealthy approach will be more important the the line's wgt.
Almost for certain you can underline your rod by putting on...
