This is my 3rd Vice, still fishing the other 2. Thread wraps not as good as higher end rods, ferrule epoxy will crack over time but casts well and at this price I can afford to replace it every 5 years

I love the way this rod throws dry flies. I bought the 9' 6wt and the Redington Rise III 5/6 reel and have been very happy. Bonus that I catch fish!

I recently purchased the Vice in a 9 1/2 foot 6 weight. If you are looking for a fast action fly rod that won’t break the bank, this is it! This things casts like a rocket and turns over streamers with ease. For larger trout and smallmouth bass, this thing is money. If you’re looking to upgrade from the rod you started fly fishing with, this is a solid option. I bought this to back up a more expensive rod, but I like it so much I’m going to take it to Colorado this summer as my primary rod.

I can not believe this rod for this price. It's absolutely insane. I have the 9ft 4wt and I couldn't be happier. Especially for under $200! If you want a rod that's better than a beginner rod and not spend a boat load. This is for you. It's done me well. I fish small mountain streams in North GA and East Tennessee and this one is great! Nice dry fly presentation. This rod is deadly accurate and great action for the price. I've got the Redington crosswater 9ft 5wt, classic trout 8.6 4wt, and now the Vice 9ft 4wt. I really like using the Classic trout in the small streams, but honestly having the 9ft allows me to keep my line over obstacles while drifting a little better. Redington makes great products at a fair price and the customer service is great. I recommend Redington to everyone. Sure this rod isn't hand made and doesn't have all the bells and whistles it's only $200, but the product you get with this rod is absolutely worth it!

Zero issues. Was able to throw well and handle steelhead without issue.

Fast Action! Deadly accurate 20-50ft. I would highly recommend going up 1 line size on this rod.......if you’re looking for a 5 wt, buy a 4 wt and put a 5 line on it. That’s what I did and couldn’t be happier. I tried the rod w a 4 wt line and you couldn’t even feel it load. You could also buy Rio Grande line for it but that’s a 1 line size heavier fly line anyway. Same thing. Downside is the guides and ferrules look crappy but the rod is $199 so you get what you pay for. If you’re looking for a fast Sage rod but don’t have the $, get the vice

Absolutely LOVE this rod. It casts just as good as my $600+ dollar Sage and Loomis rods but cost me $170 instead! Very light, very fast. I picked up the 9wt and can chuck heavy striper flies into the wind with no issues at all. The green color could be better, Im not a fan, but I dont buy gear for its looks, I buy for the performance. And this rod performs above and beyond expectations. I picked it up as a backup/extra but found I like it so much I use it as a second set up with a sinking line and carry it next to my GLX with a floating line. Fantastic rod at an unbeatable price.

I feel so bad that I had to leave this review. I bought this rod from the amazon warehouse for 115.00 bucks (regularly 199.00). Either price is a steal, I just stole less. I was totally skeptical - how could a hundred dollar rod compare to others I own that cost almost ten times that? I figured I’d cast it and stick it in the closet as a backup to something else more expensive. Holy crap can this rod throw a big ... fly and a full sink line. And it fished superbly. Easy distance, soft enough tip for good presentations. It’s not a super light rod, and the reel seat and guides /thread finishes are barely above Walmart rod quality, but geez I paid just over a hundred bucks for it. It’s a wild green color and the graphics on it look like a can of Monster Energy, and the dots to line up the sections are hard to see but now I’m picking nits. It’s a hell of a rod for the money. Yeah it’s probably made in China blah blah blah. Despite all that however, it’s now my go-to streamer rod and I’ll carry it rigged and ready as much as I can. Just don’t turn me in for doing it.
