Travel Fly Rods

[slingshotz]

Well so far my hunt for a used +5 piece fly rod have been unsuccessful so I've got a few questions for all those out there that travel by plane and fish. I'm needing a 5wt or 5/6wt packable fly rod and got it roughly narrowed down (it's still a large list...) to:

 

6-piece Greys G-Tec Travel

8-piece L.L. Bean Travel Series

6-piece Snowbee Prestige travel

7-piece Orvis Frequent Flyer

6-piece TFO Lefty Professional

5-piece Albright A-5NS

 

Ideally I'd like it to be a faster action rod. Anyone here ever used any of these rods or their close cousins (I think some of these use the same blanks as the 4-piece) ? I know that generally you need to cast the rod yourself to see how it feels but in this case it's next to impossible as no one generally keeps these types of rods in stock.

 

Thanks.

I'm fishing a 4pc Snowbee Prestige 5wt, very fast rod with a nice crisp action, drop me a PM if you want to cast it, I've got it lined with a few different Snowbee lines.
