Overview

An angler fishing freshwater for trout, salmon or bass gets a four-piece rod that breaks down for travel. The rod uses a cork handle and a medium-fast graphite blank for smooth casting.

The reason to look at it is a travel-friendly rod with a case and a forgiving action for many skill levels. The limitation is that grip and reel seat information is inconsistent, and no reel or line is included.

Who it's for

Anglers working small streams and lakes for trout or bass, and those who travel with a rod tube, are the target. Buyers who need a saltwater setup or a ready-to-fish outfit should look elsewhere.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Four piece for easy travel
  • Medium fast action
Cons
  • Reel and line not included
  • Grip fields conflict
  • Rod weight figure unclear
  • Freshwater rod only

Performance notes

A medium-fast action bends through the upper half of the rod, which loads smoothly on short to mid casts. The rod weight rating matches the line to the blank, so a mismatched line will cast poorly.

Frequently asked questions

How do I set up the Redington Path fly rod?

It arrives in four pieces, so you join the sections and add your own reel and line. The listing gives no assembly steps.

Does the Redington Path come with a reel?

No. The included components list only the rod with its tube.

Is it for saltwater?

The description says weights from seven up have a saltwater-ready reel seat, but this is a five weight rod, so it is sold for freshwater.

What grip does it have?

The spec says full wells, while the description says rods through six weight have a half wells handle.
