------------------ UPDATE ----------------------
Just got back from my annual fishing trip to the Elgin Ontario area of Canada. I fish for Northern Pike up there, but this year, brought my 5/6 Wild Water Fly Fishing outfit I purchased last year. I used it HEAVILY, every day, for non-pike. I caught hundreds of bream and rock bass - at least 50 a day. The outfit performed flawlessly. One of the rock bass weighed 24 ounces and even tested the drag! I practiced casting on an artificial turf field through the spring and all I had to do was just tie on a fly! If you haven't fly fished before - like I hadn't - it just may change your life - be forewarned! In my opinion, there is nothing quite as exciting a seeing a fish rise behind your dry fly (or popper) before your hear that sucking sounds knowing the fish has just inhaled your [dry] fly. The flash of color just beneath the surface of the water is also exciting as I tried to determine what fish I had just attracted. I had zero problems with the outfit. This outfit was battle tested, in my opinion, over 7 days. It saw more action than all of my other gear will see this year. Not much else I can say - totally worth it and I consider myself a fortunate owner.
On a personal note, I like cottage industries. After being impressed after receiving this combo I looked into the Wild Water company a bit more. It seems to me that this is a small business run by a guy who has a passion for fly fishing and wanted to provide the market with something that the big outdoor hunting and fishing chain stores couldn't; a good deal. I have a feeling that the owner Erik Dodds, personally assembles the combos and ships them from his garage or something. I don't know about you, but I like that.
Update: My reel seized up. I am technically inclined and pulled the reel apart. It is actually a decent reel, but the drag mechanism can be loosened off too far which allows debris to wash in, and components to wash out if dropped in the water. Also there are screws which have rusted. I contacted Wild Water and admitted that it may have been my fault, they offered a fix or replace if I shipped it with 25 dollars. I will not take them up on that offer as I can guarantee a new comparable reel (Pflueger Purist) with new line and not have to ship anything around. If you have a new combo, and if you are technically inclined, be sure that you occasionally grease the reel seat, and do NOT unscrew the drag excessively. I believe that is what caused mine to fault. I still give this product a five star, although Wild Water's reel fix/replace reel policy feels a bit like a 'Take a hike buddy'. Good idea, I'm going for a hike over to an upgrade in reel and rod, and putting a cheap reel on the Wild Water rod, as a back-up.

Anyhow, I might try it next year on a completely windless day and see if it's any better but until then this will be in the shed reminding me of the failure that I am.
Fast shipping and good quality
