Overview
The Redington Path is a 9 foot, 4 piece medium fast action graphite fly rod built as an affordable entry point for freshwater fly fishing, with a Cordura travel case included.
Handle and reel seat construction differs by rod weight in this lineup, with lighter weights getting a half-wells wood seat and 7 weight and up getting a full-wells anodized aluminum seat rated for saltwater. One recurring assembly issue is reel seat hardware that arrives without lubrication and can seize.
