Small to medium size steams
I own 3 of the Rhodo’s. I use it for myself and for guiding on a few more remote small wild trout streams. First time I used it caught a beautiful wild 11” brown.
Last outing both my clients caught a few smaller wild browns and loved the rods!
I pair the rods with level lines, it’s stiff but responsive with a softer tip-which I like. I do like the way it casts as well as the flex. Use both traditional Tenkara flies as well as American/English style dries, nymphs, and soft hackle/wets.
If you are looking for a fun, portable small stream Tenkara rod-this is a fantastic value! Highly recommended!
