I'm Abigail Scott, an author, adventurer, and mother of three. When I'm not navigating the beautiful chaos of motherhood, you can find me tackling the turbulent waters as a professional whitewater kayaker or scaling impressive rock faces as a climbing guide. The rush of adrenaline, whether from kayaking or climbing, is a feeling I cherish deeply. But the thrill doesn't stop there; I capture the breathtaking allure of nature through my lens as a professional photographer. And when I'm not submerged in the wild, my software engineering skills amplify my outdoor pursuits, allowing me to harness technology in unique ways. Through my writings, whether articles or blog posts, I share not just my adventures but my heart, hoping to spark a flame of inspiration in others to break boundaries and experience the world's wonders.

Why We Like The Redington Original Kit

Experience the thrill of fly fishing with ease and convenience. The Redington Original Kits have been thoughtfully designed to provide two versatile combos that cater to different fishing environments. Each kit contains a 9-foot fly rod, featuring a medium-fast action that offers a perfect balance between flexibility and control. The rod is expertly paired with the Crosswater reel, RIO Mainstream fly line, and RIO Powerflex leader, ensuring a cohesive setup that eliminates the need for complicated decision-making. Ideal for both beginners and the average fly angler, these well-matched kits offer exceptional performance and reliability.

Choose between the 5-weight Freshwater kit, tailored for trout, bass, and panfish, or the 8-weight All Water kit, perfect for pursuing larger species such as salmon, bass, pike, and redfish.
