Built this 6'6" 3 weight as an addition to the collection of rods I offer. The blank is available in three lengths and weights. I decided to give it a test drive this week end. Because of not being familiar with short fiberglass rods it took me a bit of time to get the feel. As the day went on I found that this soft action stick was a powerhouse when needed. Slow and easy was the way to go. I made curves and aerial mends with ease. Spey style casting was great fun. I must say that I have been adverse to shorter sticks, but now I see the light. Can't wait to get out again and find some larger fish for the final test.
I love fly fishing. I am a Fly Fishers International Certified Single & Two Hand Casting Instructor with sixty years experience in fly fishing, casting and fly tying to share. Please feel free to send me an e-mail and I will tell you what I know. My areas of knowledge are in fly fishing and fly tying for North Eastern trout, Landlocked salmon and the experience of over forty rivers world wide fly casting to Atlantic Salmon.

Glass Is Back
Here is my new PLUNGE Series of Linear Glass Fly Rods. Comes is 6' 2wt., 6'6" 3wt. and 7' 4wt. Each rod is appointed with agate stripper guide, epoxy burl cork accents and is wrapped in my quality sock and aluminum tube. No need to dive in the deep end with a rod at such a shallow cost.
