bigalcal Posted June 26, 2008 Share Posted June 26, 2008 I've got a friend that wants to buy a new 4 wt rod and reel for around $500. He does 99% dryfly fishing and fishes the Crow and Oldman area. Any suggestions. Again I look for BBB to kick this topic off! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mephitis Posted June 26, 2008 Share Posted June 26, 2008 $500.00??!! Good heavens! At that price one has a lot of choice. Both my outfits together cost less than that... and the limitting factor with each lies not in the outfit but in me. sigh... pat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest bigbadbrent Posted June 26, 2008 Share Posted June 26, 2008 Tioga #4 reel, SA Trout Line Scott A2 for the rod, 8'0" would be perfect you'd be looking over 500 (535ish, can get the trout line for 35, we've got one left at 50% off that's a WF-4) but not much, and the setup would be just amazing, though if it was a 2 piece, you'd save 30 bucks doing that Or since its a dry fly rod and use is for trout, you could cheap out on the reel and get a 50-70 dollar reel, instead of a 160..
