Gear Review: Rise Fishing Co. Fly Rods

Over on Fly Talk, Kirk Deeter offers his first impressions of the new “Level” and “In-Line” fly rods that Rise Fishing Company is bringing to market within a few weeks. “The ‘Level’ saltwater models are crisp and responsive, but not so fast that ‘feel’ is sacrificed (a common flaw of some saltwater rods, in my opinion), and the ‘IN-LINE’ freshwater rods have medium-fast action that I think will translate to river versatility by way of roll casts, wind casts, etc.”
