How the heck did you learn to cast like that? I’ve been trying for year for someone to teach me. I did buy a Sector 8 wt 9 ft from my local shop and love it and am working hard to make that magical side arm rocket cast you do. Enjoyed your enthusiasm!
Nice honest review. When in doubt, keep them both :) and put the Meridian as your "1st backup rod". I prefer faster rods so my pick would be the Igniter, considering I own 2 Methods (9 & 10 wt.) and one TCR in 9 wt.
There is a slight difference between your casting strokes with the three rods, with the Sector it looks a little bit more relaxed (I think it's a better term than "slower"), while the Igniter requires a faster more accurate timing. Scott have always been known for making fly rods with soul or with more feel. One thing's for sure, they're all three at the top of their game. But to achieve the same distance with less power/effort, that's the next level in fly rod design. I haven't owned a Scott since my old 9' 5 wt. Eclipse Series, which was an amazing rod for that time.
@@NordicAnglers I have noticed the line speed as it zinged through the stripping guide in Sector's case. That alone is proof that this new model can generate the needed line speed to cast it all out there, given that the hauling hand speed wasn't much more different when you tested the Sector vs. when you have cast the Igniter in the end. Nothing scientific here, just observing the casting mechanics throughout the video.
Daniel... asombroso la facilidad con la que puedes hacer esos largos lanzamientos! Tan simple y natural, da gusto verlo! Si tuvieras que elegir la caña para lanzamientos extremadamente a distancia, de vadeo, como se suele pescar en ríos grandes patagonicos. Cual elegirías? Me gusta mucho el igniter.. #8, pero viendo lo bien que funciona el sector#8 ahora estoy sin saber para donde encarar!
Excellent video. I'm thinking of a buying a Scott Sector for pike fishing with fairly big flies. Would WT9 be sufficient, or would WT10 be better. Also, I have heard that getting the true value from the rod's performance, the WT rating of the line should be one-step up? Does a WT9 perform better with a WT10 line? Many thanks and your videos are great - best wishes, Phil Lockley.
Another awesome video ! Thanks Daniel !!! Did you compare with a 9'6 6wt (igniter or radian) ? I need something to trout fishing from the bank in lakes and big rivers in France :-)
Well i cant try them all and do videoes on them all regretfully. The sector will not be avaible in 9´6 and for troutfishing in lakes and rivers i think i would go for the radian myself :)

Well done my friend! I now may be in the market for a new “Scott Sector”. Q - how would you rate “feel” & “forgiveness” between my 6wt “Method” vs the “Ignitor”. BTW - can you recommend a fly rod addiction/rehabilitation clinic??? 🤕🤑☠️
Hey Daniel, great video like always!!! How would the cheaper TFO BVK find it’s place compared to this lineup? That’s my currend seatrout rod and I’m asking if I have to save some money for an upgrade? Cheers Dominik
Well i think the bvk is a great rod. The best in it pricerange for sure. These are simply the pinnacle and they cost 3 times what the bvk does. They do not however cast 3 times as long. but they are better and better build, designed and simply just magnificent
@Nordic Anglers Hello from Florida, I owned both the 6wt. Sector and Igniter... you should give the G-Loomis NRX+ a shot, I sold both the Igniter and Sector and now own the 6wt. NRX+... wondering if you've tried them out.
I love this guy!!!! He is the most exited guy in the flyfishing Business...👍🏻🥃😜👏🏼👏🏼❗️❗️
I just love fishing......and casting.........and tying........... and well talking about it......... :)
Beautiful presentation , thank you.
Thank you

How many hours do you spend weekly practicing lawn casting? Less than 20-you will never get that good.
@@tonyg3091 Usually 1 hour a week during temperate months and more when prepping for a flats trip.
Dude, you're great!
Thank you :)

@@AndreiZabetTV Yes the igniter is fast like a devil and is a blast and a blaster. the sector cats a bit more easy but still very very powerfull

I’m glad you liked the Igniter cause I just bought one. 😊
Hope you like it!
Nordic Anglers Well, it looks nice but haven’t cast it yet. I was supposed to go on a trip to the salt but due to the Coronavirus it got canceled. 😩

The 909 is enough i would say :) around 22 grams would be perfect :)
@@NordicAnglers Thank you
Nice video! would love to have seen the Loomis Asquith as well
Well never tyed that one
Hello Daniel, great video! Which reel size do you use?
I use the -5+ Force reel om my 906 Sector :)

@@NordicAnglers Daniel you're the best, thanks a lot !!! If i'll go that way, I'll tell you :-) If you came in France, tell me.
Hello, couldn't find the line in your shop (8.5 m head). Is it a full line or a shooting head? That one I found...
These two seem to be the same, despite the slightly different naming

it is these: nordicanglers.com/en/fly-fishing/fly-lines-shooting-heads-and-more/wf-fly-lines.html
In the compact version
@@NordicAnglers Thanks!
What are the differences between the other two lines ('regular' Short and Thin) as they all have the same head length?
Well done my friend! I now may be in the market for a new “Scott Sector”. Q - how would you rate “feel” & “forgiveness” between my 6wt “Method” vs the “Ignitor”. BTW - can you recommend a fly rod addiction/rehabilitation clinic??? 🤕🤑☠️
I am terrible sorry but I only know how to go deep down the rabbit-hole of fly fishing
Nordic Anglers me too...

@@NordicAnglers Thanks for your reply! We'll see, if i someday have some money left... ;-)
Arctic silver line?
love that guy!
Thank you :)
So what exakt flyline would u recomend for Scott Meridian 907? 7wt or 8wt?
Well for the 7wt meridian i would go for around 18 gram. Often it is better to talk grams than # when you are talking in general terms :)
@Nordic Anglers Hello from Florida, I owned both the 6wt. Sector and Igniter... you should give the G-Loomis NRX+ a shot, I sold both the Igniter and Sector and now own the 6wt. NRX+... wondering if you've tried them out.
Well there is no Loomis distributor in Denmark so no. :) I would love to try it!
Could you tell what brand and model of line you used?
Hello Rick. The line is an Arctic silver Wf 7 in 17 grams :)
