I have been out of the fly fishing game for 20 years. I wanted to up the quality of my rod and reel if I was going to get back in, so I did some research and came across the Montana Casting Co. I liked what I read and found the Craig Fly Rod 4 piece combo to be exactly what I was looking for. I took a shot on it and am glad I did. I took my first trip to Bridgeport, CA to try it out. It did not disappoint. The action on the rod made casting very easy and the reel is smooth for stripping line and bringing in fish. I used this setup for river fishing as well as float tube fishing on lakes. It performed well with both types of fishing which makes for great versatility. I just got back from a 3 day trip to Kern River, CA. Again, this combo was everything I had hoped it would be. The action on the rod made it a lot of fun to fight fish and the reel performed great. The other part I like about this company is the personal customer service. Scott called me on his personal cell phone to make sure we had all the specs right with the order before sending it. I am glad he did because we ended up making a couple of changes. If he had not done this, I would have to send it back to make the changes and it would not have been ready to go for my upcoming trip. Scott even told me to save his number and to reach out anytime. Who does that?! So cool. Love the combo. Great way to get back into the game and it looks sexy. Daynon Higgins Orange County, CA

Scott was so great to work with, as he helped me through the decision-making process and I ended up with my new Craig Rod/406 Lite Reel combo. Shipping was fast also. Got it in a matter of days. Can't wait to wet a line with it this spring around NW MT, and in The Bob this summer.

Buttery smooth from the first cast, and it pairs well with the Envy 406 Reel. I absolutely cannot wait to get back on the water as soon as possible.
