I have one of their Trout 56 reels, and so far it's a tremendous value. Super smooth retrieve and drag, the machining and finish is impeccable, the size/weight ratio is perfect for my salty 6. Great looking, too. I tend to take care of my stuff (rinse after each use), so I don't know how it will handle abuse or neglect. So far, though, I would heartily recommend it. I also have some fly boxes and fly lines, both standard WF and some switch lines. So far, all of their products have exceeeded my expectations substantially for what I paid for the items. Super value. Oh, yes, I'm in the Pacific NW. :-)
