newdrenalin Posted March 31, 2012 Posted March 31, 2012 I'm new to the forum so hello to everyone. I'm in the market for a new rod and was looking at a Snowbee 9ft 4wt at South Bow yesterday. Does anyone have any experience with these rods or recommend something they prefer. I will be using this rod mostly for the mountain streams west of Calgary, occasionally the Crowsnest and the Elk. Thanks for any info. Quote
CDone Posted March 31, 2012 Posted March 31, 2012 If it was the Diamond rod you were looking at, the 9' in a 4wt is a great stick for the streams you mentioned, it has a very progressive tip on it that makes it perfect for nymphing as well as delivering small dries, I fish both the 8' 4wt and 10' 5wt (the 10' being my Czech nymph rod of choice). Obviously I'm biased in my opinion, if you can, take an opportunity to cast a few different rods and make your decision on what works for you as far as action and price go. Colin Quote
