I put this up in a coupla places, so this may be duplicate if you troll around some of the other boards....but-



COLTON fly rods is a small (MADE IN USA) company that maufactures rods and reels and sells factory direct- there prices are very resonable, and the stuff fishes great. now they are having a season-end blowout sale, wiht rods at 1/2 off! reels are 35% off too- I use the 10weight Tradewinds as my full-time fly rod all year and was reallly happy with it- casts effortlessly, with enough nuts to pull bigger fish when you want it. (all right, they were only big bloofish, but they still pulle dhard...)

check them out- you'll be glad you did
