In this Redington Crosswater review, I took this budget friendly fast action rod down to the river to see if Redington could produce a decent rod at such a low price.
The Redington Crosswater is a great first rod to test the waters and get the hang of casting. The action is great, but I did find that it lacked a little accuracy and power when compared to higher end rods.
More experienced anglers will also find it useful as a backup rod, or a rod to teach their children or grandchildren the secrets of fly fishing.

Reddington-Crosswater-Fishing-Outfit
Founded in 1992, Redington has become well-known for its quality gear and competitive pricing. Their motto is that good quality fishing gear and rods don’t have to be expensive and over-priced. Fly fishing should be fun and accessible for beginners and experienced anglers alike.
The Reddington’s Crosswater outfit fits straight into this mold, with its graphite medium-fast action fly rod. The option available of buying just the fly rod or complete fly fishing outfits makes it attractive and affordable for the beginner learning fly fishing.
As well as providing a consistent, excellent performance, the Crosswater is constructed from high quality materials like the anodized aluminum reel seat. From the reel seat to the wraps, the rod is finished with care and attention to detail.
