FIRST CAST Pro 6wt / 8.5ft – Travel Fly Rod

My first 2 times setting up were a bit slower than what it is now. Such a fun and quick rod! I hike or bike near many lakes and having a reel to cast properly is such a plus! I am having a bit of trouble running the weighted section of the line when the rod gets a bit wet or dirty but if you keep that section outside the rod it casts really smooth!

Absolutely love the pole. What an ingenious idea. I was catching fish the first day I received it. I'm doing a long through hike, which is why I bought it, and it has replaced my other fly rod because your pole is so much easier to get to the good spots.

My only gripe is that I find it very hard to feed line through the rod sections on the cast, however, for a little travel packer, it's real slick. Takes up no space in the backpack and it seems very well built. Think like a tenkara rod with a drag system more than a bona fide fly rod.
