Title: White River Fly Shop Gear
Post by: RonniePache on September 01, 2011, 02:17:34 PM
Hi Everyone,
My wife won me a $100 gift card at Bass Pro, and I was looking at buying a fly rod/reel combo.  The brand is White River Fly Shop, and the reel is a Hobbs Creek.  Just wondering if anyone has tried this stuff, and how it holds up.  I am looking at the 4wt, as I mainly fly fish for rainbows and I hear lighter gear makes for more fun.  I currently have a tfo 7wt, which I really like, and if the reviews for this Bass Pro combo are poor, I will likely buy something else with the card (like wading boots), and get another tfo locally.  The reviews were generally good, but I never really trust a retailers web page review section.
Any comments are welcome, thanks,
Ron
