After seeing you funny people talkin' about fly fishing I decided I wanted to give it a go. I'm moving back to WV in March just in time for trout stocking.
I was looking at the Echo Lift but I might pay out the extra bit for the Traverse because the reel is alloy instead of resin, and it looks like a double locking for the reel seat instead of the single. Could'nt find a lot of reviews for the Traverse but the features look like something that'll last for longer while the Lift might need to have some upgrades in the future.
Also was looking at the TFO NXT since I like my TFO Trout and Panfish. Good reviews except for the ones on Cabela's website. Everyone likes them but for whatever reason Cabala's is mostly negative. Maybe because the reviews were for the 8wt instead of the 5wt. I guess the 8wt breaks pretty easy, both the reel and the tip.
Finally, I bought a reel on Black Friday and they sent two by mistake. Stonks.
