Mill Creek Fly Rods

was wondering if anyone has used or heard of these types of fly rods, Martin Mill Creek Fly Rod ?

I happen to across these the other day, and they’re priced very reasonably. Being a new to fly fishing, don’t what to spend a fortune … yet … on equipment :slight_smile:

Any feedback would be appreciated.

Martin was once a big name in fly fishing, especially with fly reels. All of their current offerings do not match in the quality of the former days. However, a person has to start somewhere. My first rod was similar to this one you are considering. Once I decided I liked the sport I packed it away and got other rods. Eventually I gave the rod to a young man just starting out. Go ahead and buy the rod and get fishing. If you object to buying a rod made in China then this is not the rod for you. However, most rods in this price range are Chinese so you might as well have at it. There are many used rods on the market as well. The important thing is that you get to the fishing and then decide what is next.
