Beautiful workmanship, pleasure to cast and play trout with. Jaguar looks with Caterpiller strength!
Weakness:
None Awesome 6pc rod...Great at roll casting, long casts, and is accurate when casting under the willows! Sweet! Customer Service Been great for questions, but never had to use for a rod problem. Similar Products Used: Powell LTT, Sage SP, Scott G, Loomis |

Strength:
Pick something--it supercedes all expectations.
Weakness:
So pretty, sometimes I want to just stare at the thing. Excellent all around rod. That is not to say it doesn't excel in some way--it does. It roll casts perfectly, had accuracy beyond anything I could have imagined, and kicks the fly out into wind deeply without losing any of the delicate presentation. I am a big fan of Scott rods, and this is by far the best rod they have ever produced. Customer Service The best--or that's what I've heard.

Strength:
That's all their is with this rod. It has accuracy and distance, able to present delicately and still pop a dry deep into the wind.
Weakness:
None, except sometimes I spend more time gazing at the beauty of the rod than at the pool in front of me. The best fly rod I have ever used. Excellent all around rod that can do anything, and do it well. Customer Service Haven't had the use it. Here it's excellent. Similar Products Used: SAS and G |

Strength:
Sensitive tip, powerful butt section, absolute classy looks, lifetime warranty.
Weakness:
none (9/5wt/3pc)This rod wants to catch big fish... yet has enough feel in the action for catching trout in the 10-12 inch range also. I started fishing bigger rivers the past 2 seasons (Madison, Big Hole R., MT , Delaware R., NY) & this is where this rod shines. It''s the perfect blend of power for casting distances, tip sensitivity for nymphing, moderate/fast flex & action for protecting light tippets. I don''t consider myself a great flyfisherman, and I thought I might''ve gotten myself "too much" rod when I first started using it. But, after landing several 18"+ trout and an unexpected 7lb shad.. I''m totally happy I got this rod. Customer Service Took a bad spill & damaged the nickel silver real seat. Scott folks installed entirely new reel seat and had it back to me in 10 days. There''s a 20$ charge with any repairs. Similar Products Used: loomis GL3, sage SP |
