I mut have been kiving on Mars lately. Can someone fill me in on this

Orvis if I get the drift.

Seems as if Orvis and WalMart made a deal where WalMart will sell
products with the Orvis name on them. No, it doesn't sound smart of
Orvis, unless they're going to have a different name on the products.
Even then, someone who picks up a cheap Orvis googoo piece of gear at
WalMart and isn't happy with it is unlikely, if he ever goes into a
shop with the regular line of good Orvis, to want to buy anything by
that name. Thanks, but I'll take my KPOSes from Cabela's, not
WalMart.

I would suggest that most people that buy high end orvis products DO NOT
visit walmart. The combo kit is about $110 at walmart, I would assume
it is the rod that Orvis sales for $89 on their web site, the $39 reel,
and their cheapest line and backing
