Redington Classic Fly Rods
I'm posting in order to receive some input on experiences with Redington fly rods. I have listed a few models that I have been researching online. All are newly discontinued models.
I'd like to read input on Redington Classic Trout Fly Rods. Here are a few of the models I'm giving consideration too.
7'6" (3 weight) for small stream fishing in Colorado.
8'6" (4 or 5 weight) as a general purpose trout rod
9' (5 weight) as a indicator, dropper, nymphing rod.
I think the next generation of graphite up from the Classic Trout is the CPX. I'd be open to information and experiences with that line of rods too, in the same general lengths and line weights.
Most fly rods I have owned to this point have been 2 piece rods with the exception of a 4 piece rod that broke relatively quickly in the tip section. Most of the models I have listed are 4 piece rods. I like the 4 piece rods in terms of ease of carry and travel. However, I'm not totally sold on four piece rods since I've had bad experience (though limited) with breakage.
Tell me the good, the bad, whatever experience you have to share so that I can make an informed decision.
Jeff
