Cabela's Prestige fly line was exactly what I was
looking for.
I feel my chest waders with the seams wearing
are nearing their last wade and will need to be replaced for this season. I’ve
wanted to try some waist waders for some time not only for the comfort in the
summer months but for the depth of water I wade in now. I never wade in water
nowadays above my knees.
After suiting up in a couple of pair, I finally
settled on Cabela's Breathable Premium waders.
As always when I visit the
big box sporting goods stores, I find something that I think I just can’t do
without. Well, today was no exception; after touching the surface and
feeling the flex of Cabela’s Prime fly rod I was impressed big time!! The 7’ 1”
---4 weight was awesome, but a number of anglers looking at the fly rod in the store as well as me all agreed that Cabela needs to add a 3 weight in the 7 ft. series. I have fished with numerous fiberglass fly rods over the years, but the Prime is in another class, simply put; it is the best fiberglass fly rod I have ever touch!!!

My wife has been promising to take me to Cabela's in Reno for several years now. Some how I don't think I can afford the trip. Cabela's just has too much good "stuff".
ReplyDeleteBill I can't go in the big box stores and leave w/o something either. I'm just happy it haven't left with a new boat yet!

ReplyDeleteCabela's and Bass Pro have the merchandise, if one has the money to shell out. I read the other day that Bass Pro, is looking into buying Cabela's out. Thanks for the comment

ReplyDeleteBoth stores are over priced on at least 90% of the merchandise they sell. Thanks for the comment
Bill nice going, I love my waist-high waders.
ReplyDeleteKirk fishes a Prime rod and absolutely loves it.
As far as fly lines I shop for the cheap deals. Allen has some reasonable lines.
It's a good time of year to assess our fishing gear and to see what needs replacement (or what needs supplementary items). I find that Cabela's Plus or Premium gear is almost worth the price, if needed. Thanks Bill.

ReplyDeleteI have wading with Cabela's chest waders for some years and know how durable they are. I hope their waist waders are the same. Thanks for the comment
It's always fun to check out the new gear..
ReplyDeleteCabelas makes some good stuff, unfortunately the price point can be a bit steep.
ReplyDeleteI love visiting the Cabelas in Nebraska but I don't think I've ever bought anything there. I've only been to Bass Pro once and was sorely disappointed in their fly fishing selection. I'm going to check out the Cabelas rods just in case I need to add another rod to my arsenal.

ReplyDeleteNew gear for me is a big bill up to the upcoming fishing season. Thanks for the comment

ReplyDeleteAnytime one goes beyond the beginners level in fly fishing, it gets expensive, especially if one is on a fixed income. Thanks for the comment

ReplyDeleteI agree Cabela's has Bass Pro beat when it comes to fly fishing. Thanks for the comment

ReplyDeleteThe line I replaced was still good; aside from the loop broken I would still be using it. I think key to any line's use is keeping it clean. I haven't used the double taper and will give it a try on my next replacement. Thanks for comment
If I could only throw one fly rod for the rezt of my life, my 7'1 4wt Prime would be it. I LOVE mine. Caught some nice brown trout on it this week.
