Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Orvis Streamline vs ll bean quest

I fish the Clearwater 5wt a lot. I fish the current model more than my older (and then higher end) Orvis silver label. 

There are other options out there for sure. However if you break one you'll pay shipping + repair fee. Bring a broke rod to an Orvis company store and they ship it and repair for one price, which in my past experience costs less.

Orvis Streamline is not with 25 years warranty.

 

I bought Orvis Clearwater (included 25 years warranty) 3 years ago and I love it, broken twice, replaced without questions, paid 30dollars for shipping when repairing.

 

Sometime low cost outfit comes with cheap fly line. You would end up to buy better line after couple time.

Personaly orvis is worth it.  their policy of replacing broken gear is amazing.

   I am getting ready to purchase a new (lower end) 6wt for all around use. I have been considering an LL bean quest 2 outfit because it is affordable but still decent quality. My question is, is it worth spending the extra 120 dollars for the Orvis streamline outfit? Does anyone have experience with both who might provide a comparison?
