Strength:
Mod fast action. Internal ferrules...at first I was skeptical..but they are the only way for multi-piece rods. Winston use them as well. This is no gimmick.
Weakness:
For a $450 retail rod, the reel seat hardware is only adequate. Minor complaint. I have the 4 piece model. The internal ferrules are the way to go. The parts NEVER come loose. Med fast action is beautiful. A little slower than Sage XP, but that's ok. Customer Service I am sure its ok. Similar Products Used: Sage, Loomis, St Croix, Orvis, Diamondback. |

Weakness:
I didn''t buy more when I had the chance. I bought the 9ft 4piece on the web at the closeout discount price. It is delightful to cast. Customer Service I hear it''s great Similar Products Used: Sage, Loomis, St Criox, Orvis |

Strength:
Power, fast, and light weight.
Weakness:
The STS 903 has been discontinued! I wish they made the 9''3wt in a 3 piece (assuming there would be no degredation in performance than the 2 peice!) or a shorter 3 wt, say a 8''6-8", and I would look no further for trout rods! The Scott STS is the rod for me! Tried quite a few brands, but this is the tops. There was no section for STS 903 which is my fav. I own a STS 905 4 as well, but the 903 I''m in love with! It''s got the power, the speed and the light weight that I''ve learned to look fwd to, every time I go listening for "trout music." Many battle-royale''s with this rod, hope there are more to come. Customer Service Good. Sheared off a guide (by using it as leaverage in breaking down rod!) Got it back in 10 days for nominal shipping charge, even sent me a new case as the orrig. had warped.
