White River Fly Fishing
I was wondering about all the diffrent types of fly rods, line , and reels and what makes some so expencive and some fairly cheep. I have a 5 piece 8′ 6” #5 graphite White River Indian Point combo it came with a rod, reel ,line leader, and case. It cost about $100. I was considering upgrading my line and mabey my rod soon. But before I even think about that I want to know what am I going to get out of a $100 rod compared to one I have now and compared to one of those $350+ dollar ones. And compared to a reel I have now or a much more expensive ones like $250. And the line should probley be a diffrent question all together but I was thinking this is probley the most important part of the rod setup so could I get some advice on the line. So basically I was wonder What I will get out a rod that cost just as much as a whole set of things just like mine. And I relly don’t see the between the two besides a few things like flexability length weight, and most importantly the price.
Obviously the big difference is quality of the product.
With the higher priced rods comes much greater sensitivity, they’re stronger and will probably last much longer than a 100 dollar rod and reel.
I never saw the advantage of the really high priced ones. I went in the middle and a little below.
I enjoy it but I’m not that good to warrant spending $500 on a rod or a few hundred on a reel.
Going up to that $100 rod is a good step for you. It’s not that expensive but you should notice the difference in feel and action on that rod.
Once you see the difference, you may want to step up again.
The weight could make a difference too, it gets pretty heavy at the end of the day with a heavier rod, the lightweight rod will be much easier to handle.
Most upgrades deal with sensitivity and strength…Quality.
Good luck and good fishing.
