Looking for comments good or bad on these reels. Preferably their "light" series models. i.e. tailwater CL... I only own two reels: A ross evolution 1 for my 3wt and a cortland graphite for my 5wt. Both have suited me well although I haven't been in a many situations where I was battling large fish... I am getting ready for a new rod either a 5 or 6 wt. (probably the Scott E2) and am struggling with the higher end vs mid priced reel debate) sad.gif

Thanks,

Rod

Do the math.

Tibor = NICE
Ross eveloution = nice/less money
Ross rythum = All you need for trout,bass ect. / best price




so T=n(re=n-lm) & (rr =a+bp) = By the Ross!


What ever you like the best, that's the way to go! All have great drags, all will do the job. Best Fishes <'((((((((((>< Mike

thanks for the input guys! I've looked at the tioga by teton and looks to be a good bang for the buck albeit a little heavier than the Ross / Tibor/ Lamsons...

What did the Buddhist monk say to the hot dog vender? "Make me one with
everything."
The vendor gave him his hot dog and the monk paid with a $10.00 bill.
The vendor said "Thanks, have a nice day."
The monk said, "Hey, where's my change?"
The vendor replied, "Change must come from within."



This goes along with your water!

Beer can be substituted for the vino as well!

I have both an evolution2 and a lamson v1 both are great, if I were you I buy a rythum same as the evo. just not as much machining, and costs less. Some think you don't need drag on a trout, but I was really glad to have it on the dream stream 3 weeks ago (2 trout over 24") biggrin.gif

Ivanhoe,

Try Cabela's bargain cave, fly fishing. You can get a gold colored one for around $175.00. A big discount from the $300.00 price tag. I think it is last years model, the new one has a self lubricating piece where the old one didn't, otherwise no change.

They are light... and I did like that. Overall I didn't care for the reel, but that is just me.

thanks cycleguy. I saw that in the cave. I'm not too excited about gold reels though... I think I'm headed in the direction of the rhythm for now...

btw is it road,mountain or motor?
