  My best dry fly rod ever - 2/24/2014
  By: Olejohan from 7234 lER Norway

  I have just gor my Superfine touch # 5 fulle flex rod. It is a bit early in the season here, but I have tested the rod on the Nidelv river. It casts like e dream, and I have used all the casting strokes I know of. It is light, responsive, well balanced and extreamly accurate. I used a Hydros weight forward #5 on a Battenkill reel and the whole outfit worked fantastic well. I am looking forward to the rest of the early part of the season now with stonefly and caddis hatches. The superfine touch will be the main companion, delivering the dry's like swandown on the water. Just lovely.

  Surprise Power - 5/13/2013
  By: Superfiner from Bend, Oregon

  I had an old Far and Fine, and loved it's power and lightness. I decided to try to recapture that feeling with the Superfine Touch, so I purchased a 9' 5wt. I am completely amazed with it's light weight, soft tip and strong butt. This rod shoots line for long casts and when you hook up, you have the fun of a lively rod with enough backbone to fight large trout. I am seriously thinking about getting another as either a backup or to have it strung with a different line while lake fishing. If you liked the Far and Fine, you will love the Superfines.

  Superfine Trout Fly Line. - 7/8/2012

  Having owned 2 Far and Fines for 20 + years, both 7'9" rods, I decided maybe a 9' rod might go better in my canoe. Went to my local Orvis retailer where Jamie showed me the 9' Touch rod. The rod felt limber, close to my old rods. Rod works great in my canoe. Seemed a little stiff, being 9', but soon got the sync going. Was not long before I was throwing Wooly Buggers 70'. Good rod.

  A great ROD - 3/11/2012
  By: SLeMANS from Ontario Canada

  I purchased the #865 Mid Summer last year after testing on the Lawn across from the Store. It was much better in actual use, byond my expectation.I love the full flex and power of the Rod.....It did not take very long to get used to the casting action as WE have an earlier version: Superfine Mid-Flex that we have been using for over 5 yrs. I'm getting the new Hydros line for this year. I have only used it for stillwater so far... Love IT. SL , Toronto

  Superfine Touch a real WINNER - 12/29/2011
  By: DaveK from Concord, New Hampshire

  When Dale Robinson (fishing manager in Manchester Vermont) told me that that the Touch now was available in a 9 foot, 5 wt. I just had to have it. I love full flex rods and the Superfine Trout Bum series didn't have a 9/5. I fished this rod over 4 days on the upper Connecticut River in Pittsburg, New Hampshire. Many trout were caught and it was a pleaure to fish.
