    Re: Travel fly rod advice?

    [QUOTE=mr trout]Hi, I recently tried a redington wayfarer 5 piece at the yakima sportsmans show . . .


    I think that's the older discontinued model. The current model is 4 piece, I believe. The odd numbered pieced rods make it a pain in the a$$ to break the down road in to two pieces of equal length when, say, you want to put your rigged rod in the car just to drive down the highway a bit on the Yakima to hit that next hole.

    I have always wondered if lawsond loomis ever made it safely?

    Richard I actually think the new wayfarers are 6 pieces....the CPS's are 4.

    Doh! Man, I shoulda looked at the post date, which I guess I should from now on! I just automatically assume the threads, when they pop to the top, are relatively current.

    Man, as someone else mentioned, how did this old thread even get dug up!
