(1/1)
Jonathan Kerr:
Hey folks, forgot all about this forum! Used to be on it all the time when I lived in Aberdeen. Now back up in Shetland…
I’ve been out of the game for a little bit…I’m keen for a new 4 wt rod that won’t break the bank..anyone got any tips? Orvis Clearwater might be ok? Are there many others out there worth considering?! I’ve been a die hard 6wt fan for most of my life but fancy something smaller for general purpose use…
James Laraway:
Personally i'd go for #4 glass. I did and have loved it ever since....
I bought a Taniwha #4 glass which i think is 7ft4
I used to fish a #6 carbon as my 'go-to' however i cant see past glass now....
Jonathan Kerr:
Thanks James. Interesting hearing about all this glass. Never seen one in the flesh, not many use them up here. Will need to read more about them!
Robert MacDonald-Lewis:
The faster Taniwha carbon blanks 10ft in 4 or 3wt make for very good loch rods.
