I've heard people call Redington a "cheap" brand. They're a less-expensive brand, with great quality. My casting style seems to work better with their actions. I can afford to buy the bigger (read: more expensive) brands, but I've got multiple Redington rods in various weights for the above reasons. Great review!
We are big fans of Redington products. Usually excellent value for the performance.
Don't you know that fish will turn their nose up at your fly unless it's attached to a $1000 Sage rod?!

Bought a Redington Trout Field Kit over winter and just got into fly fishing this year and absolutely love it. I think I will be sticking with Redington for future purchases
I Love the Classic Trout. I find myself reaching for it before my Sage almost every time. How does this compare to the Classic? Thanks for another great video!
Another great video from MRO, love the enthusiasm in sharing your deep knowledge of the sport
We appreciate that a lot. Stay tuned.
Hi Mike here from sunny Alberta Canada. I liked this episode so much that I have ordered a Wrangler #5. Christmas present from me to me lol. Slowly replacing my old two piece rods makes traveling a lot easier . Great show keep up the good work.
Thanks for watching and thanks for the support. We appreciate it.
This is a great addition. Well done, Redington!
Thanks for watching!
I very much appreciated this video. I grew up in MN live in ND now but want to get back in fishing again. Used to fly fish (never very good but loved it), so wanted to buy a new fly set up (looked at a bunch of places in mn and sd back hills) super expensive, but came across this video and ordered one. Long story short back at my moms in mn with my son found my old fly pole in the garage so me and my son are up north in mn fly fishing (teaching him how to), learning more and relearning myself but making memories!
Thanks so much for watching.
Just watched the video and am in the market for a 5 weight; as a beginner your channel has taught me a lot over the last year so booting up the laptop to order the kit!
Thanks for the support. We greatly appreciate it.
This is my favorite "Truck" combo to take along on any trip where I might be able to sneak in some fishing. Great setup. Line comes with pretty bad memory, so either fish it out or replace if you're in a hurry.
Thanks for watching.
Just wanna say thank you. Great channel and content
Thanks for being here.
My first fly rod was the Redington Path 5wt. I've caught thousands of fish with that rod. Trout, Crappie, Bass, Bluegill and others. I can horse in a 2 1/2 lb bass with this rod. I would love to try out this new Wrangler.
Thanks for being here. We can arrange for that!
I have a closet full of Sage, Scott, G-Loomis, and Orvis rods. I bought a Reddington for my son to start flyfishing and it is an awesome rod! I will be adding some to my collection soon!
Thanks for watching. They make some really excellent rods!
Thanks for the videos. I just ordered!!
Thanks for watching and thanks for the support.
Recently found your channel. Lots of great info so far. Hope to visit you in Ohio one day 👍🏻
Thanks for watching and we’d love to see you.
Over 5 decades I have owned and enjoyed tier 1 gear . Hurricane Katrina washed it all away and now I prefer these prebuilt kits . These new kits are well conceived and effective . Simply put friends , Fish dont know or care what We spent for Our equipment . I say grab a kit or two and just go fishing ! Bonjour de Louisiane Mes amis partout !
Thanks for watching.
Just picked one up today! I got the 8wt salmon kit. Can’t wait to try it out!!
Thanks for the support! We appreciate it.
How is it? I just ordered one for pike and Walleye fishing.
@@JavinCarelse well, they are pretty great (see video) 👍
I'm sure it's good. I love my CT. If it needs replacement Ill be sure to look into this one
Thanks for watching.
2 rod companies I always recommend to beginners are Redington's and TFO. TFO because of the warranty but you're spending a bit more than the basic redington. The first fly rod I purchased for myself was back in 2006 and it was an old Redington 8ft 4wt for small streams and I still have it.
Thanks for being here.
Redington also has a lifetime warranty, just to be clear on that though.
@@Madriveroutfitters Indeed, Path II is a lifetime warranty and you can purchase seperate sections. I have an extra tip for my 5 weight ( I paid $20 for it) so if I DO break it on a wily and sizable trout, I can continue fishing all weekend
Awesome! Glad to hear they are making a great product without having to break the bank. Have you guys tried the Redington original kits? They are a little cheaper and I was curious if there is a big difference between say the 5wt wrangler kit and the 5wt freshwater original kit? Thanks!
Thanks for being here. Please send your question directly over to the shop via e-mail and they will be happy to help/discuss. You can also call them of course.
Love Redington rods
They do a great job for reasonable prices.
I've have a 4wt Pursuit model of their's that i paid $60 for over 13 years ago, still gets used to this day.
Thanks for watching.
Love it brian mate
Thanks for watching.
You earned my subscription one question I do have is would this rod be able to handle pinks or silvers I just bought this and have never fly fished before but am really into salmon fishing at the moment
Thanks for being here. Please contact the folks at the shop directly with any and all questions. They are always happy to help. You can email them or call them. They do not monitor the comments here.
would be cool to see you guys review something like the fenwick HMG or fenwick Aetos fly rods i personally own a fenwick aetos and love it for a 200$ rod
Sorry but the shop doesn't carry Fenwick. Thanks for being here though.
Thanks for the review. I thought the Redington Vice was a good rod for the money and I love the way it casts, but every time I put a reel on it, I’m irritated by the cheap reel seat. Either the reel is loose or I have to crank it down until I feel like I’m going to break the cheap ring that holds the lower end of the reel foot. This one looks far superior to that.
Thanks for watching.
dangit, MRO got me for 450 bucks! Thanks! I needed a new 8wt and the salmon field kit fits my needs perfectly.
The Field kits are great of course. Thanks for the support.
I love those Redington Buttersticks though!!!!!
We do too! Much different application though. Thanks for watching.
I read that Reddington was taken over by Sage about 4 - 5 yrs ago to get into the “middle” market and have improved quality
Thanks for watching. They were both taken over by a company called Far Bank….along with Rio as well.
I have a Redington x topo.. I love it.. same thing as a trailblazer but has a x topo design on it..
Thanks for watching.
what a líne there, "the Wrangler Is the new path", almost a prophesy, like butter
Thanks for watching.
Good review video🙂 i have a Loop q 5# rod. Have you any experience with loop to compere to Wrangler?
Thanks for watching. Sorry but no experience with Loop.
I live in an area dominated by trout streams. I occasionally hook onto a small mouth or walleye when i venture closer to the river. A few times a year i fish the tributaries off of Lake Erie during the runs. Which of these should i shoot for?
Please contact the shop directly with your questions and they will be happy to help. E-mail them or give them a call! They do not monitor here but of course do at the shop!
Redington is my go-to brand for anything fly fishing. They are an extremely overlooked brand and deserve more attention! All in all I love redington.
Thanks for watching. We agree.
How would this compare to the Echo carbon XL or ion xl? Thanks
Thanks for watching. Please send your questions directly to the shop via e-mail or give them a call. They will be happy to help and discuss.
Do you know if there is anything in the works to replace the Vice? Or is that one sticking around for the time being?
You’d have to check with the folks at the shop on that. Don’t have any intel here. Send them an email or give them a call. They will know. Thanks.
The Vice will be around for a bit!
I guess this makes me a little concerned with the warranty for the Path rods. I suppose if I ever need to RMA the rod, and the Wranglers are what they have that closest resemble the Path, would it be correct to assume they would replace the Path with a Wrangler?
Not sure on that. You'd have to check with Redington but they typically keep old stock to back up their warranties.
In what way is the action of the 7wt 10’ Wrangler better than the Path?
Looking to buy one for single hand spey. Thank you!
Thanks for watching. Please contact the folks at the shop directly and they will be happy to help. That's what they do. You can e-mail them or call them. They do not monitor the comments here but do of course work at the shop every day!
Whats your take on the Trout XL bs say an Echo Traverse? I am super torn on these 2 rods and the outfits are within a few bucks of each other .
Thanks for watching. Please contact Brian or the folks at the shop directly with your questions and they will be happy to help. That's what they do!
Is the hardware better than the Vice? The aluminum seat completely broke apart on me when I was removing the reel. I’m curious if the hardware is better than the vice
Please contact the folks at the shop directly with your questions and they will be happy to help. You can email them or call them. Thanks!
Nice😉
Thanks for being here.
how does it compare to the Redington field rod?
Thanks for watching. Please e-mail or call the folks at the shop directly and they will be happy to help and answer any questions. They do not monitor the comments here but do monitor the shop!
Was considering an 8wt for salmon fishing and Path II came up. How is it vs the Wrangler? Thanks in advance!!!
The Path rods have been discontinued according to this video. As to how they compare, you’d have to check with the folks at the shop. You can email them or call them and they are always happy to discuss. Thanks.
@mcglothlenchris4212 I havent tried the 8 wt, but I tried the 5wt Path II and the 5wt Field Kit. I dont know if the path rod I received was a lemon, but it could not cast the line whatsoever. I even switched the line out, was still terrible. Was frustrating because I spent soooo much time trying to learn on the path, I thought I was just a bad caster, but everything came to life as soon as I tried the field kit. It was a dream, smooth as butter. The redington video regarding the wranglers mention this new wrangler rod is built the same as the field kit rod (just the rod), so I ordered it to try it out, hoping for the best!
@@Ja8888 Thanks for the info. I went ahead with the 8wt Pth and it is very nice! My casting seemed to get better even more than I expected from a heavier line! Thanks for replying!
What’s a good combo for Craig Montana thank you.
Please give a shout to the folks at the shop and they can help/answer you there. You can e-mail them or give them a call and they will be happy to assist. Thanks.
How about the Redington Original All Water Kit ?
Please send your questions over to the shop and they will be happy to help. Thanks.
Can you reveiw the reddington vice rod. Maybe 7 or 8 weight
Probably best to call the shop and speak with them about the rod. They will be happy to help. Thanks.
Do you feel this rod is superior to the rod that comes in the Field Kit combos?
Please contact the folks at the shop directly with questions and they will be happy to help. That’s what they do. You can email them or give them a call. Thanks.
What is the red reel they were using in the demo?
You’d have to check with them. Not sure on that. You can email them or give them a call and they will be happy to help. Thanks!
Now I am confused. Which kit should I buy? A Wrangler or a Field Kit?
Feel free to call the folks at the shop. They will be happy to consult. That’s what they do!
@@Madriveroutfitters I just ordered the Wrangler after watching again. So I was able to order some more beginner's equipment! 😉
How does it compare to the field kit?
@@jasongonzalez8910 please send any and all questions directly to the folks at the shop and they will be happy to help. That’s what they do! You can email them or call them at anytime. Thanks.
What reel is Ryan using?
Sorry we don’t have that intel here. You’d have to email him or call him at the shop for the answer. Thanks.
👏👏👏👏👏
Thanks for watching.
I see the 9’ 7wt but not a 10’?
www.madriveroutfitters.com/p-19033-redington-wrangler-7100-4-fly-rod.aspx
Are the wranglers 2 pieces or 4 pieces
They are 4 pieces. Feel free to call the shop if any further questions.
I'd take the Cross Water over the Wrangler if I wasn't using the Sage....
Thanks for watching.
But can it handle the Lord’s fish, the humble carp?
Yes, these would make great carp rods as well....of course.
Killer rod at any price. I don’t care what you can or can’t afford or if you think a rod MUST have a heavy price tag and the most expensive guides and reel seat/insert money can buy..If you took this rod out of my hand and didn’t look at the make and model and just took it for a 30 minute test drive, brought a few fish to your net, you would almost certainly think that you had a rod that cost well north of $500 in your hand. It really is that good. Really.
Thanks for backing us up and thanks for watching.
What is the overall weight and swing weight for a 9' 5wt? Thanks
Please send your questions directly to the shop and they will be happy to help. You can email them or call them. We do not have that information here….but they will. Thanks.
