You can look at the blade and at the model number and tell if is made in Germany or China. I buy older Puma's off of eBay. That's what I would recommend you do. I don't see many Puma dealers any more except on eBay....

I want to splurge on a nice outfit. Thinking around $200 for the road maybe a tad more. Avid, Greenwater, ProGreen, any thoughts? Wade and cast mainly although some front of the boat alone in a chair useage. Any advice helps as a starting point. Get to the reel later. Thanks, guys....
