I find that if i wax the ferrules once and then tape with every use it s all good.
Scott tidal rod review.
It is a slower action rod than the meridian but still had lots of power.
The tidal a mid priced saltwater series from scott sports a caster friendly blank and some features to be excited about.
Scott has come out with a fly rod that epitomizes value packed saltwater performance.
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.
While the tidal falls short of the performance of the meridian that s to be expected from a mid priced rod series.
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.
A minor drawback for an outstanding rod.
The scott title is a sweet rod.
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.
A solid value on a great performing rod that s made in the u s a sean.
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.
The three major releases that happened were in the value space the tidal the nexus and the accel sort of.
The tidal is not overly heavy but not nearly as light in hand as the meridian.
Not super fast but is a great fishing rod with some good lifting power.
