onthefly7 Posted May 4, 2008 Posted May 4, 2008 Has anybody cast a Redington CPS? I was thinking about getting a 6 wt but wanted to get some feedback first. Also, do you think I should get the 6 wt with fighting butt or without. Quote
trailhead Posted May 5, 2008 Posted May 5, 2008 I got one to replace a Sage and I find it to be a little slower action, but a bit more precise. Quote
ÜberFly Posted May 5, 2008 Posted May 5, 2008 Yes I have one in a 5 wt (got a killer deal a few month ago) and it broke within the first month (fighting a rainbow applying side pressure). Redington replaced it (for US $30) and I had to wait a month. I like it, it's a nice fast rod, but for the same amount of $, I'd go with a TFO TiCR (have one of those in a 6wt) or spend more and get an axiom for the only reason that you can get a replacement section in Calgary instantly. I wouldn't worry about getting a 6 wt rod with a fighting butt (a 7 wt for sure), but not a 6. Just MHO. Let us know what you decide and how you like it! Peter Quote
danhunt Posted May 5, 2008 Posted May 5, 2008 I have the 9' 6wt and it is a sweet casting rod, but like the post above mine broke on the 2nd trip out with it. First rod I've broken in about 12 years. Quote
