Fly fishing on a budget - testing Maxcatch ultralight combo 

It’s a great set up, I have just got a saltwater rod from them so looking forward to getting out and testing that one

Sir, im about to buy 4wt rod for 4wt line. Should I switch and choose 3wt rod from Maxcatch instead? Thanks in advance :)

@LajtowyWedkarz I would go a size down 100% 3wt rod and reel then 4wt forward line. Casting will be much better

Thank you for taking the time to watch and comment

Thanks Johnny appreciate the support 👊

Wonderful, thanks for taking the time to watch and comment

They are a great company in my experience David. I find the gear very good, they have recently sent me a package that I need to do a unboxing video for them and they get it out on a lake to put through its paces, looking forward to seeing what they have sent me and getting it wet so to speak. Thanks for watching ATB Craig

Thanks Pete. Really appreciate you taking the time to watch and comment

Hey Ralph, they are great little rods, I did have a small issue on my 2nd trip where the reel mount glue had failed so the reel could not be seated, maxcatch were superb though and a replacement was posted out the next day. Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment. Have a great day Craig

​@@Craigsoutdooradventuresbtw, the standard cheap M.catch lines will not always be that great to cast. But they imitate like the Rio Gold. Which goes with different names made by Maxcatch. Like the " Avid FlyLine" comes in a box. Or you can choose without the box. Around €20 ! (also two colored yellow and green) these ars such a difference fot the better than the 8€ standard lines. Maxcatch makes more different tapers these days. Which is good of course. I had some bad financial period. And lost all my Top Brand fly fishing gear during. Later I very reluctantly ordered one fly reel from them. Now I have a lot. Their nano im46 tons flyrods are excellent. Bit I also use Sientific Anglers Art lines for other rods. What I mean is , I dont feel ashamed anymore people see me flyfishing with a cheap brand . As long it is descent and proper made.

@Iheartmyson thanks for the advice 👍

I got the max catch 5/6 weight extreme reel with 9' rod for Father's Day and it's great. It catches fish and doesn't break the bank.

@tracythomas3565 they have some fantastic gear, my collection keeps growing 👊

Thanks Paul, glad you enjoyed and thanks for talking the time to like and comment

It was a great day and yeah I have a fair bit of the Maxcatch range and really can’t fault them, in fact I’ve got a 10ft 4wt in transit currently… just don’t tell the wife 😂 thanks for watching bud

Thank you, really pleased you enjoyed

It’s a great bit of kit for the money, I’m looking forward to getting out with it again later this month. Keep an eye out for the next video, and if you are U.K. based go check out my latest video where I got a great Maxcatch giveaway 👊

Thank you and thanks for dropping in

@@Craigsoutdooradventures your welcome

Thanks Dave

Thanks Michael

Hey ZigZag good to have you on board

That is what it’s designed for but dont see any reason why it can’t be used in bigger waters.

@Craig’s outdoor adventures that's true, I just started fly fishing and got a 7ft, 3w, UL for pan fish, but the river kinda big where I'm at california delta and I fish from the bank... should i get a heavier set up like a 5w or 6w modern fast or medium fast to cast father on the bank?

A 5wt 10ft would be what I would look at buddy for that, depending on how fast the river is and the size of the fish, if it’s a fast flowing and 10lb plus then a heavier set up would be the way to go

@Craig’s outdoor adventures ty you, my man... subscribe you keep on the video

No problem buddy, let me know what you went with and how you get on

Hey there thanks for stopping by

Not this day buddy
