Perfect for anyone who wants to start fly fishing using an affordable, top-quality rod. The moderate/fast action of the 34 million-modulus IM6 graphite produces accurate, yet forgiving casts. An aluminum real seat and cocobolo wood insert combine for a touch of style.
I recently purchased 2 of them a 904-6 and a 864-4 and the 4wt is simply amazing. It's handled large rainbows and triple nymph rigs with ease! The 6wt was to replace another broken rod, but i haven't used it as much yet (seeing as i purchased a Traditonal II 902-6) shortly after these purchases. The 6wt is a slightly forward heavy for my current 6wt reel/line combo and it is definately mod/fast as the 4wt is FAST.
I bought this 8'-6" 4wt. rod to use on small creeks & streams but was amazed how it handled 5-7lb. bows on the Upper Owens River in Ca. It's light but handled these fish well in strong current. For the price it's a steal.
Finally got out on the water with my wind river 5wt 4 piece this morning and to say I LOVE this rod would be putting it mildly. It loads nice and feels great in my hand . You will not go wrong with this one ... GOOD JOB CABELAS!
