Personally I would either try to stick a few more pennies away or look to
the used market for the older whorvis rods


Speaking of which there are two orvis mid flex five weight rods with buy it
now price of 109.99 and 129.99 on ebay.

Yep, there are a lot of Orvis Clearwaters on sale right now. If you
liked the Superfines, you'd probably be happy with the mid flex
Clearwaters. A little faster, but not much.

And don't knock yourself out over not being able to afford the new
Trout Bum rods. I've got a couple of friends who are Superfine
affectionadoes and they both feel the redesigned Superfine Trout Bum
rods suck.
