The Orvis Recon Review

[@austintrenkamp8205]

Fun review 👍 thank you. Shop seems sweet!

[@harrisondavis3719]

Great job Shannon on the ORVIS RECON rod!

How is the 6 wt 9’6” for streamers, hopper droppers and high stick nymphing? Also is there a difference in the 9’ vs the 9’6”?

[@tuckaseegeeflyshop]

the 9'6" 6wt would be a great option for those applications especially if you are fishing bigger rivers and lakes. The 9'6" version will have a fighting butt and will be slightly stiffer/faster to help cast and deliver fly rigs on those bigger bodies of water or in a boat.

[@hunterrunplantation7303]

Would the Hydros II be little heavy on the 3wt 8' 4" or would you go with the Hydros I?

[@tuckaseegeeflyshop]

I think the hydros II would work with it being a longer 8'4" length.

[@profpigeon5441]

would a 7 weight variant of this rod at 9 feet be good for central texas bass and coastal redfish?

[@tuckaseegeeflyshop]

Yes it will be a great option for bass and redfish. I will say if your fishing for bull reds in the fall in the gulf you may want an 8 or 9wt as well, they get pretty large lol

[@jefflanham1080]

I prefer the 1st gen Recon…..I’ve got a 4wt, 6wt & an 8wt., beautifully casting rods.

[@rootedrotor525]

$225 a good price for a 6wt first gen you think? What type of action? Thank you

[@jefflanham1080]

@@rootedrotor525 if it’s in clean shape, that’s a great price! They are feather light with a really smooth action that isn’t hard to cast and handles the haul nice.

I would call this an overview instead of a review. Great video though.
