				Colton Rod
			 
			 
			
		
		
		For those that might be looking for a new fly rod, I thought I'd 
mention the Colton Tradewinds. 
 
I bought the new blue 9wt rod. And I am extremely pleased. 
I have 3 Sage xi2s ( 6,7 and 8 wt) I chase Schoolies mostly. 
I wanted a beefy 9 or 10 wt but did not want to spend a lot of  
money since I don't use 9 or 10 very often ( getting Old........) 
 
The 9wt Colton is a strong rod with a lot of backbone. 
It throws 9wt well and does like 10wt line. 
I'd say the 9wt is more of a 9 1/2 wt. It loads well and will throw 
big flies. I'm throwing 6" deceivers on a 3/0 hook a good 60'.
