Your First Fly RodBest Buy: the $149 rod from Temple Creek Outfitters. Remote Spotlights: Golight Shines Golights all-around performance, reasonable pricing, longer warranties, and contemporary styling push them to the top. Optronics Motion Pro 1000 exhibits sub-par performance. Roll-Up Inflatable Boats: Mercury Unbeatable Mercury bests six others with excellent control, a dry ride, and the lowest price. The Bombard AX2 is a fun little boat, but short on interior space. The West Marine RU-260 is big, but expensive. High-End VHF Radios: Icom, Standard Horizon Take Top Honors Awesome performance and a long list of features make the Icom M602 our top pick. For $175 less, the Standard Horizon Quantum GX2360S nearly equals the high-priced Icom in performance and features. Its a Best Buy. Dual-Console Shootout: Seaswirl vs. Grady-White The Tournament 205 lives up to the Grady-White moniker, with overbuilt everything and near-perfect fit and finish. But the Seaswirl Striper 2101 is $8,500 less, has a longer warranty, and more standard equipment. | |||||
