Scott Tidal Rod Review

It is a slower action rod than the meridian but still had lots of power.

Scott tidal rod review.

Scott tidal fly rod review 2014 was not the most exciting year for fly rods. While the tidal falls short of the performance of the meridian that s to be expected from a mid priced rod series. Not super fast but is a great fishing rod with some good lifting power. I don t own one but have thrown it plenty of times.

First it was the s4s then the radian now the scott tidal is making a very strong statement in our mind at grabbing the best salt rod for the money category. The tidal is not overly heavy but not nearly as light in hand as the meridian. A solid value on a great performing rod that s made in the u s a sean. Scott tidal review scott just keeps pumping out category favorites.

A minor drawback for an outstanding rod. Jim bartschi is really at the top of the industry and the top of his game at the moment. It looks like the meridian s younger sibling with the same attractive un sanded blank and nice blue green wraps. Your 8wt mangrove is a softer rod than the tidal and the aetos is lighter and a faster rod but not quite the lifting power as the other 2.

Scott has come out with a fly rod that epitomizes value packed saltwater performance. If you re looking for a great muskie rod at a moderate price i highly recommend the scott tidal muskie pike special. Sure sage released the new salt which we also reviewed here but there were no other releases of marquee rods and nothing that made me rethink my quiver. The scott tidal is very nice mid priced saltwater offering from scott.

The three major releases that happened were in the value space the tidal the nexus and the accel sort of.
