OkumaSLV Graphite 4-Piece Fly Rod

Great fly rod, my 2nd one (broke first one off on ATV). My son also has the same rod and really like it as well. Its an excellent fly rod for a great price.

I bought a 10/11 SLV rod for Baja and was so impressed that I bought a 6wt after my G.Loomis blank rod cracked. So far I can tell you that this rod fishes like a much more expensive stick with just the right kind of moderate-fast action I like. It is relatively light and yet I feel like I can throw just as far as with similar rods I own that cost about 8X more.Can't speak for the durability yet, but so far so good. If you're on the fence about this one, you should just buy it.UPDATE: 06.20.13: Durability has been great. I like these rods so much that I bought a 5wt for Sage backup duty. After using these for a while, I realized that these sticks are a little more moderate in action than some of the other fast action rods I have (Sage, Echo, Ross). These Okuma SLV rods are also a little heavier, but if 1 oz makes that much difference to you, maybe you need to hit the gym more often.

Surprisingly well built for the cost. Cast well, stiff butt section.

I bought this for my husband because of the price point but unfortunately the rod was lightweight, but not sturdy and the reel would jam often. Unfortunately, we ended up returning this. It was cheap, but the price was cheap so I guess you get what you pay for.

This a very decent rod. Very good quality for what you pay for it.
