pictures can be misleading but still very much worth the purchase.
By Teresa Shock on Reviewed in the United States on January 12, 2023
the picture leads you to believe that because you purchased a combo that you get 3 RIO tippets and 12 assorted flies. This may be an oversight, but honestly I would have bought it for this price stand alone. It would be nice to have the 3 extra tippets though. I generally don't have much luck with combo pack flies being of any notable quality anyway. That being said, The rod shipped very quickly. I ordered late Sunday night, and it was shipped and in transit via FedEx "EARLY" Monday morning. Like it was the next thing they did after they turned off the alarm when they opened shop for the day. To top it off, it got here (technically 2.5) days earlier than predicted and expected. Was packaged well and in mint condition. They had a nice note enclosed thanking me for my business, offering assistance with any questions I may have and even an easy way to return the item if I choose to. I know this is long winded, but these guys do deserve a hat tip, and I sincerely plan on ordering directly from their store as much as I can. I live 3 states away and it is easier than driving to my nearest Fly shop. The rod is great too btw. I used a buddies before I bought this one. Worth worth worth. If you are new to fly fishing like me, Redington, has a life time warranty on the Path rod, and a 1 year warranty on the reel. if you are new, You are going to want that rod warranty :) Hope my super long message helps you in your buying decision. Great shop, Great Rod, excellence on staying on top of my order.

Line not spooled correctly
By PNK on Reviewed in the United States on August 29, 2023
I own several Redington fly rods of various weights, as well as waders, boots, and more from Redington. Clearly I like their products. This year I have purchased 2 of these fly rods. The first, I purchased as an 8-weight with salt water line. I could not be happier with this rod, reel and line. It has a very fast action, which I like in a bigger rod and the line shoots through the guides with accuracy and ease. I have caught salmon in salt water and even used it in fresh water for large rainbows as a streamer rod. It performs very well. The second one I bought is a complete disaster. It too is an 8-weight, but with fresh water line for my lake fishing and steelhead. On this reel, the line seems to have been spooled incorrectly. As it comes off the reel, it twists and curls immensely. It's awful to cast and the line wraps around everything including the butt of the rod constantly. I pulled the line all the way out to the backer and ran it behind my boat to try to get the twist out of the line, but to no avail. It's a mess and renders the rod nearly useless. It's past my return date, so I guess I will now have to throw the line away and spend more money on a new fly line to make it right. Fall steelhead season is coming up in a couple months, and the rod will be impossible to fish effectively for these challenging fish. Redington, if you're reading, I'd like you to fix this problem for me as a good customer. Redington has always been a good service company when I have had to repair a broken rod twice in the past. UPDATE: Redington asked me to return the reel with the line to them so they could replace the defective Rio line with new Rio line. I paid to send it back to Redington. They kept it for a few weeks, then sent it back without changing the line. They sent it back with the same defective Rio line and did not provide any information. I reached out to Redington to request they fix it and they did not reply. So Far Bank, owners of Redington, Sage and Rio does not stand behind their products like they have in the past. Nor do they value me as a customer that has purchased many rods, reels, fly lines, clothing, accessories etc. They have received thousands of dollars of my money over the years, but none going forward. I just purchased a Spey rod and reel, and rather than buying their brands, I purchased Lamson, OPST, and Echo for this kit.
