One of the best rods I’ve owned over the years. I’ve landed fish in this 3wt ranging from 5" to 26" rainbows! Love the action and it’s an amazing nymph rod!

The Douglas Outdoors 9′ 5wt LRS is one of the most impressive budget-friendly rods I’ve ever seen. I’d put it neck-and-neck with the Orvis Clearwater, and even go so far as to say the Douglas is better fishing within 20 feet than the Orvis. The LRS features such a pleasant progressive action that it’s just fun to cast, and I love the blank color. While I wish the cork burls were gone, and the reel seat hardware downsized, there’s not one thing I can point to that detracts from the rod’s performance itself. Sure, it has a heavier swing weight than I’d like, but remember – it’s a $250 rod. And it’s a damn good one, at that.

After 2 days of practice performing switch cast utilizing 350 Skagit short head I was able to cast well on the big water Delaware right River catching small mouth bass. Rod load easily and is built well. The interchangeable rear grip allowed be to use two hand or single hand a traditional 8 wt wf fly line.. I suggest reel spooled with Skagit head and spear with WF line for maximum versatility.

I love these rods, I currently own the 7 wt 2 piece and the 8wt 4 piece fly rods for great lakes trout and salmon fishing. These rods fish like they cost 3 times what they actually do, I handle big king salmon, brown trout, and steelhead with ease! You will not be disappointed with this product!
