- The Best Staff Available. Review by Kingfisher - Kingfield, Me. U.S.

Overall This staff is the very best you can purchase. Easy to use and dependable when needed. Stores well and it's clean design is never in the way when you are fishing. The staff is very lightweight so you don't really notice it during all day sessions. A great piece of gear.(Posted on 7/19/12)
- I like it Review by FlyGyd - Bethel, Maine

Overall Before this staff came out I thought the best available was the folding staff with the cork handle, shock cord, and the tapered ferrules. Lean on it for a day in cold water the ferrules were near impossible to get apart. After pulling hard enough the cork handle came off. Simms solved those problems with the slip together ferrules and the sliding lock tube. The grip handle has a comfortable shape it looks like it will stay on. I like the zinger. Its been long enough to reach where I needed and retracts to keep the staff from floating downstream and tangling my fly line. There are a couple of things I'm not thrilled with. It takes two hands to deploy, at least if you are in waist deep fast water, which is usually when I want it. The neoprene sheath is nicer than the other brand does wear quickly if it gets bumped on the bottom when the staff is stowed. The sharp edges of the folded sections can cut little "smiles" in the neoprene. Overall, the positives outweigh the negatives by a wide margin. I'm keeping it and recommend it to others.(Posted on 7/19/12)

Overall Have used the rest, glad I choose to give it a try. After 1 year of use it is everything I need. Unparalleled support when wading, convenient storage and love the retractor. Keeps the staff out of my way when I'm in the water. It's best feature is how quick it goes together and comes apart. No more straining to pull the staff apart In fact, you can put it away while walking. Excellent product.(Posted on 7/19/12)
