>>1545125>spent close to 1k on an orvis setup>rod breaks twice when casting Law of diminishing returns. My $50 combo that got me into fly fishing is still going strong and the difference isnt nearly enough for me to ever pay that much on a fly setup again. Especially reels. Reels are seldom used in fly fishing to anywhere near the extent that regular fishing requires and unless you're using a 10-12wt for salmon spending more than $50 on a line holder is pretty cringy.
