Business Travelers Dream,

"Ever find yourself planning business trips around hatches, bodies of water or a potential new species? My wife went into a local Orvis store and asked the fishing department manager for a few good gift ideas. Bingo! I feel like I owe him a gift now! I like fast action rods the tip flex makes those short shots amazingly well. Great little rod that I have gotten a lot of mileage out of. Paired up with a BLA II and Wonderline, this is a great combo for travelers or beginning fisherman."

A nice surprise,

"My wife bought me the Orvis 7 pc. 5 weight as a surprise. It certainly has been a pleasant surprise. While it is very compact and an excellent deal, it sacrifices nothing in performance for most everyday flyfishing for trout in small to medium streams where wind isn't a factor. I keep it handy in my truck all the time I'm in trout country and pop it in my bag when I travel to trout country in case I can sneak away. A nice item and a great value."

"I looked for quite a while to find a quality rod that would fit in my motorcycle saddlebags. Here in the west it is a blast to ride the "scooter" and stop and multiple small streams and fish. You can buy a pass to Yellowstone and "wet a line" for as long as you want. This rod fit all the challenges. Small enough to drop in my bag and big enough to fish the best wadeable rivers. I, too, had many of the concerns that people here expressed -but they were overcome on the first cast. A great product."

"I took this rod with me to Alaska for flyout trips for trout and greyling. In the morning of our second day we were fishing for salmon and the tip section of my nine weight broke. Rather than use the guide's spinning gear, I put my nine weight reel on this five weight rod and made it through the day. I landed numerous 12 to 15 pound silvers with this five weight, seven piece rod. "

"I recently added this rod to my fly fishing line-up, specifically for a vacation to fish in Grand Teton National Park in Wyoming. What initially attracted me to the rod was it's packability, both while in commercial airliners, as well as on the trail. Initially I felt some skepticism of how the rod would perform, and was fearful that a rod of this many sections would not cast or feel as good as a standard 2 section rod. Well, upon my very first casts all doubts evaporated like an early morning fog. The rod performed like none other. Forgiving, sensitive, easy to load, and deadly accurate. Regardless of the river or the weather forecast, this rod delivered. While fishing the Snake, the rod had enough backbone to really punch out some long, accurate casts. And while on the countless smaller mountain creeks and streams (Cottonwood Creek / Pacific Creek), the performance was simply fantastic. I appreciate the quality, versatility and effort Orvis has clearly put into this rod. Do yourself a favor, buy this rod, you'll be glad you did.!"
