    Redington Rods


    Who here has a redington fly rod? I recently acquired a 8wt, 5 peice rod. When i grabbed the butt end the first thing i thought was that it was a very thin rod (for a 8wt) then later i got out my fenwick 7wt and the butt end was thicker!

    Do they make it this way and therfore a lighter rod to use?

    Cheers

    Rob.

    How old is the Fenwick?
    It may just be newer manfacturing technology.

    Rob,,The Reddington is just a better blank than your Fenny Night hawk.The tapper of most cheaper rods have a wider butt, the Reddington is just normal size, Its good you got a"propper"sized rod, anything under #7 is fairly usless in SEQ, unless your really into Garfish. Cheers Qny

    Redington has been sold off, and evolved into something else. Max

    Max redington have been acquired by sage, and in that case would be devolved not evolved!

    Thats a matter of opinion. I understood Sage dissolved the lot and Jim Murphy started something else. Still either way it really doesn't matter. Max

    I heard that Murphy is having his rods made by the same Korean outfit that made Reddingtons. A reddington with another name!

    I thought that CD in Kiwiland made reddies before the upheaval. Max
