    Default switch rods

    Does ANYONE know anything about Redington CPX switch rods?

    I do not have any experience with the CPX, but I do own 2 Redington Dually rods. 11ft 6wt switch and a 13ft 7wt spey. Love them both! I really like the switch as it has more of a medium-fast action and I like how a stiff rod casts. I could see nymphing with it effectivly ( although I have only swung with it so far). Also love my 7wt, softer rod, more of a medium action rod which is good for spey casting, I just need to tell myself to slow down.
    I paid 249.99 for the 7wt new, but I got the switch used on ebay for $125.

    I have both a 7 wt CPX switch and an 8 wt Prospector switch. Both good sticks. The CPX feels faster, with a stiffer tip. The newer Prospector is a more "traditional" flex, but not soft. But I prefer the 11'9" length of the Prospector. My CPX casts the same lines as my 6 wt spey rod, so I use the CPX for Scandi lines, and Skagit on the spey
