Looking for an affordable rod and reel with all-around versatility? Sounds like you're the perfect candidate for our LST combos.
LST (Line Speed Taper) rods are lightweight and strong, with a versatile fast action. One
moment you could be shooting long, accurate casts across the length of the river, and the next you
could be delicately laying down short, precise presentations to a nearby rising trout. LST rods perform
both equally well. With the combination of medium- to high-modulus graphite material and fast
actions, they deliver the same performance as rods that are typically priced much higher. In addition,
we equipped them with lightweight woven graphite reel seats (aluminum reel seats on 7 wt. and up),
single-foot titanium carbide finish guides, high-grade cork handles and SIC stripper guides. All
hardware has a titanium-colored finish. 25-year warranty.
Cabela's continues its tradition of creating innovative fly-fishing products with the introduction of the RLS (Rapid
Landing System) reel. The RLS boasts the same high-end performance features as the best fly reels on the market, and
does so at a value-driven price. The Rulon® disc drag offers unrivaled smoothness and powerful braking to take on
almost any underwater challenger. The large-knurled drag knob makes it easy to adjust the settings during the heat of
battle. A large-arbor design ensures quick line retrieve and less line memory. The RLS is made
of lightweight, yet extremely durable machined aluminum with a black-anodized finish. Oversized handle. Quick
release spool. Reel easily converts from left- to right-hand retrieve.
This rod and reel combo comes with rod case, Scientific Anglers Mastery GPX fly line and
Cabela's Prestige backing.

Great Package,September 1, 2009
By GAP1117from Florida
"Bought the rod & reel for a trip to Montana because I had left my tackle in Colorado and was leaving on my trip from Maryland. The package performed as well as or better than my tackle which was composed of the best names in the flyfishing world."

Perfect Combo!,June 16, 2009
By w0011ybuggerfrom VT
"The LST/RLS combo is a great rod and reel combo for a great price. I absolutely love the action of this rod. It has amazing sensitivity yet a firm backbone. I bought a 9' 4-weight and I've caught all sizes of trout, from ~3" wild yearlings to 20" whoppers. The color is beautiful. It's hard to tell from the web page, but the blanks are a gorgeous olive with brownish ferrules. The only thing I thought I wouldn't like were the single-foot guides, as I am used to double-foot snake guides, but I haven't had any problems.
The RLS reel is outstanding. I was originally going to get the SLA reel, but after reading some of the reviews that talked about the drag going out, I decided to go with the RLS instead, and I've been more than pleasantly surprised. The drag is smooth and easily adjustable. The reel itself is light and sturdy. Also, I have to say, Cabela's on-line customer service is great! After reading the SLA reel reviews, I chatted with a customer support specialist via their on-line chat system regarding the reportedly bad drag issue. They were very pleasant, helpful, truthful, and didn't try to sell me on any specific product. Props to Cabela's customer support!
Thank you Cabela's for a perfect fly rod and reel combo at a great price! I'll be a Cabela's man for LIFE!"

"The new rod & reel worked excellent as I was Steelhead fishing in the Sacramento for the first time. Good power and I needed it. The extra 8 weight rod made the casting easy."

great rod,October 13, 2008
By Travelfrom MS
"Love the rod, have the same rod in a 4 wt and liked in enough to buy another in 3 wt.
The reel preforms well just wish you could chose the trout line in the same price range but that's the way it is."

LST/RLS fly Combo with Fly line,October 4, 2008
By BraHfrom Lived on East Cost until 3 yr. ago,now live in Sk.
"Cannot comment on the rod, will not be used until I go down to the East Coast (Canada) for salmon fishing. The problem is with the RLS reel (7/8 wt. with 150 yd., 20 lb. backing) as stated in the specs. for the reel. Everthing arrived, rod,reel, 8 wt. line and 30 lb. backing??? Tried it with 150 yd. backing and of course, all the fly line would not fit, big surprise.. Called Cabelas, and they sent out some 20 lb. backing. Great, removed the 30 lb. and firmly wound on the 20 lb. with the 8wt., WF. The line completely fills the spool, with no extra room whatsoever. this can cause excessive wear on the line. I started fishing Atlantic Salmon back in the early 1960's so hopefully have some idea of what I am talking about. Maybe Cabelas will offer some Jel spun (Prestige Plus). As advertised, this RLS reel spec. is incorrect!"

Great Rod and Reel,August 18, 2008
By ajstoney41from Colorado
"I purchased this rod before a float trip on the Platte River. I casted all day and landed some big fish. The rod casts great and the reel has an excellent drag that is really handy when landing large fish."

Nice Combo,July 13, 2008
By txmountainmanfrom Texas
"I purchased this combo because I wanted a high performance setup but didn't want to spend several hundred dollars. I purchased the 5wt 4 pc rod and was not disappointed. I used it for the first time on a Colorado fishing trip. I was very impressed with the balance, feel, and performance. The reel is very smooth and high quality - typical of all Cabelas brand products I have used. I fished in very windy conditions at times and the rod has the power to make long casts into the wind. I also fished in some tight, brushy situations and was able to make very good roll casts with this set up. The rod is very sensitive and I was able to feel most strikes and didn't use a strike indicator. I like the 4 piece rod because it will fit into a pack when cased. I did some backcountry fishing and this was very handy."
