Hi everybody as the name sugests I am from Canada (Vancouver Island). My question is about snowbee. I have wanted to get into fly fishing for awhile now, So I have been attending fly ting saturdays at a local Fly shop. He is a distributer for snowbee so figured he had a bias. OK question time, are snowbee a quality manufacturer on are they more of a low budget company.
Thanks guys
Chris

The only thing i would be buying from snowbee would be waders or fly lines! The snowbee xs is a great fly line and highly recomended! There rods that i have tried were pretty boring to be honest and did nothing to make me want one

Welcome to the forum Chris 
Snowbees 'top end' products are usually pretty good, their reels in particular.
I think you could fairly typecast Snowbee as something of a middle of the road brand and I'm reasonably confident that if you're getting into fly-fishing for the first time you would be as well using Snowbee as any other.
The fact your local shop is a distributor for Snowbee should be to your advantage, is there any particular Snowbee rod/reel/line combo you're looking at and what do you intend to fish for

No I dont any one selected yet. Its just a brand I have not heard of before. Here on the Island G Loomis and sage seem to be the rod of choise, but I always like to be a bit different. I am in research mode right now. Thanks for the replies
