I might spring for the Rio, says made with spey casts and roll casts in mind. I use a roll cast but not a spey cast so much, kind of makes me want to learn more about it and apply it, I can see situations where it would help. Where I fish there is almost no room for an overhead cast in most situations, so I rolling and mending are important skills I use. I also use some backhand casting, but it is slightly difficult for me (could be my rod action to, its moves quicker than my skill set I feel. With a slower rod I will try it out some more).
Outsider, that is where I got the rod and reel from. Seems they are pushing out all the CT's for the Tempts coming in. I have never casted the rod, but they seem to be sneaking up and a real underdog in the rod industry. Its a slower action to, which I have casted rods like, but never had my own. For that price level, its worth the experiment. Someone on here recommended a Pursuit to me and I've had a Redington rod on my eye since. I simply cant justify a Sage or Winston at this point in the game, especially when I have been reading that some of Redington's stuff is on par with casting ability. Aesthetically, maybe not so much, but again, worth the purchase. sorry for the offshoot...
I'm going to do some more research and look at the Rio LT some more and check out the SA stuff. I will let you know if I purchase the Rio, and I'll try to give a decent review with my inexperience. Can help me with some questions to ask myself so I can help you guys out? I'll double check what Cabelas has. Seems to be a good time to score some nice deals on gear.
