was in the New Westminster store within the hour - they didn't know anything about it. They do have some good deals on Cortland Fly Line though plus you a get a $10 gift card if you spend a certain amount ($50 or more I think).

I called the Langley store, and they didn't have any sales like that happening. Perhaps it was $30 off?

Buyer beware. 30$ is pretty much the maximum that rod is worth. You get what you pay for.

So you've used these rods enough to know?
FWIW I was interested in the spinning rod. I did have a look - picked it and gave it a waggle - I found it very stiff.

Maybe it was rated medium heavy action....may account for the stiffness.

the 10'6" rapala. Is that the salmon rod that Mike Mitchell and Mark Pendlington have been using in all their shows? I found one broken by the recycle bin at my marina, missing a guide and cork handle all blown up. Seems like it might be too light duty???
