Have you ever looked at our tried a Tenkara rod? I really like the ones I have. Also I’m a new subscriber enjoyed your video. I am willing to support you just keep relevant content and informative.
@@jessiepayne737 I love fishing small streams, so Tenkara would be something I need to look into for the future. Appreciate the kind words, thanks for the comment!
@@humbugvideos I would like the 4-piece: Qualification: I don't own one. I assume that ferrule technology has advanced where it no longer represents a dead spot in the rod. In the old days, the ferrules were viewed as impeding the action. I still use my 25-30 year old gear; 2 piece. Heading out to some high desert spring creeks. Using an obsolete 2nd generation graphite Orvis Clearwater 7.5 foot 3 weight. (I think this is 35-40 year technology). A long time ago the 7.5 foot glass was your std for upstream nymphing, 8 foot dry fly. My standard is a 9 foot 2 piece Orvis 5 weight.or Sage 1997.
@@humbugvideos The value of your videos to people entering the sport is that your recommendations are likely very good for the money. I don't think you need to spend $900 to $1000 per rod (I was spending $500 per rod 25 years ago for top of the line. I've tried some of these new rods, and they are very nice without breaking the bank.
Found me a like new Orvis Clearwater 9ft 5WT at a garage sale a few weeks ago for 40 bucks!
@@nickspase5334 that’s a steal!

I come from an era when 4-piece rods were very rare.
@@ronaldmcdonald3965 Interesting, yah there’s certainly pros and cons of each. Which do u prefer?

@@ronaldmcdonald3965 Agreed. If you have the money, or just really fish a lot, then high end gear is awesome. Not necessary though!
Orvis = 💩
@@javicruzito That’s a hot take sir. Could u explain why?
