Or you can save a monster $100 on the Abu Garcia Revo SX/Vendetta Casting Rod and Reel Combo.

Meanwhile, if you’re looking to upgrade your effectiveness on the water with a sweet new fish finder, the popular Lawrence HDS LIVE 9 Fish Finder/Chartplotter is 50% off.

 

Last Chance for the Redington Crosswater Combo

This review photo shows the Redington Crosswater Combo near a river.
Redington’s long-time entry-level fly fishing Crosswater Combo Outfit is on sale at a pretty much unbeatable price point!

If you want to get into fly fishing, the excellent entry-level Redington Crosswater Complete Fly Outfit is also $100 off. At just $89 on sale at Cabela’s, the Redington Crosswater outfit is an outstanding deal! We’ve reviewed the Redington Crosswater Outfit and found it to be surprisingly fun to cast. It’s a great combo for beginners on a budget and a fishable outfit as a backup/guest combo. At full price, the outfit is a good deal, but at under $90? Wow.

One note: Redington has discontinued its Crosswater outfit in favor of its new Redington Original Fly Outfit for trout (5w) and for bass and salmon (8w). They are similar combo packages — in fact, the Original kits include the Crosswater Reel. If you’re looking for a great entry-level rod, reel and fly line combo — with a case — at an unbeatable price, nab this Crosswater deal now before it’s gone for good! However, if you miss it, we’re still fans of the Redington Original Kits, which remain a great value.

Disclosure: Reviews and Gear Links:

In addition to Man Makes Fire buying gear for reviews and guides, gear manufacturers occasionally ship review units to Man Makes Fire. If we like it, we spend some quality time with the gear and review it, noting if it was provided to Man Makes Fire. After the review, we return it, give it away, or work on longer-term review follow-ups when applicable to reader interest.

We do not accept any gear in exchange for coverage. If we do not truly appreciate the gear, we don't write about it at all -- bad gear will fade into obscurity on its own if everyone ignores it. In addition, we focus on gear from reputable companies, reputable brands, and reputable retailers we trust.

The gear links on Man Makes Fire are focused on what we are willing to recommend to our own family and friends. Many of our specific gear links connect to industry-standard affiliate advertising programs. When you buy something using the retail links in our guides and reviews, we may earn a small affiliate commission that helps pay for our work.

Basically, we deliver the advice and insight you need, you get the gear you want, and then everyone wins. Pretty straightforward.
