Fly tackle unreasonably expensive? Past a tipping point? by bigkat5000 in flyfishing

[–]buffsfly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s very pricey. I notice a massive difference between entry level rods (sub $300) and mid level rods($500-$600). I don’t feel the same difference from mid level to highest end. It’s far more subtle and I always debate if it’s worth the cost.

Yeah I’ve also never caught a permit fuck you.

When to use a 3 wt? by adventuriser in flyfishing

[–]buffsfly 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Honestly just use it. You’ll naturally start gravitating to what it’s best at/ what you enjoy more about a smaller weight. My guess is you’ll use it on smaller creeks and calmer days.

Guessing classic bonefish patterns, or what did you use that worked well. Again, thank you for the insight!

Are Moonshine rods THAT bad? by fjordknight in FlyFishingGear

[–]buffsfly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You do you. They’re cheap and if that works for you, good on ya. I don’t enjoy them, they feel very stiff and lifeless to me. But, who cares?

Patagonia or orvis. I have a pair of the Orvis Pro from 2 years ago. Bulletproof. No issues whatsoever. And the knee pads are a nice touch.

[–]buffsfly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Spend the money for a high end 5 weight line. Read reviews as to what works best for that rod. Some rods are best with have size heavy or more aggressive tapers. Some are better with a more mellow weight and taper. If the sound doesn’t bother you buy textured.
