I was suprised how nice and tidy this rod reel is very light weight could nt tell the diffrents between the weight of scientific anglers.
My daughter wanted to go fly fishing with me and at the same time she wanted her own equipment.
I have a scientific angler 8 9 fly rod that i bought in walmart about 10 years ago for about 75.
Sa s use of micro balloons and variable tapered coatings was named the most important sport fishing innovation of the 1960 s.
It is not a fast rod.
Well the fact is that i still use this rod and like it a lot.
I planned to use it as a back up for some of my better rods.
Scientific anglers needs no introduction.
This is a complete switch from the style of fishing that uses the lure as a weight to carry the line out.
I put the rod together and i did some casting with the outfit.
In fact it s considerably slower than my orvis winston temple fork or diamondback rods.
While the company was started in 1945 scientific anglers has been a constant source of innovation in fly line technology including the invention of the modern tapered fly line.
Fly fishing rods use weighted line to cast out the fly lures.
I purchased the scientific anglers 4 piece fly fishing trout outfit for her.
Fly fishing rod ratings tell the angler what weight fly line to pair it with.
The ratings start with a 1 weight rod and can get as high as 14 for heavy offshore fishing.
