Over the last 2 weeks, I travelled the country with Pascal Cognard and Said Yahiaoui.
We have used many different rods of the various conference attendants, and I have used the rods that Pascal and Said uses.
If you listen to them, what they want a rod to do, and how. And what some some sales persons told the fly fishers about a rod and why they should be fishing them, you realise, that some rods are sold for turnover only, in the shop, not to help the fly fisher.
And this is not for "competition only guys" as some have referred to the conference.
There are some premimium rods out there, at VERY good prices. with very good back up services, and gaurantees (maybe not a life long gaurentee) but at half the price.
PS: I do own 2 "premium brands" if you want to know.
