Re: Fly rod information
#2It appears to be a fly/spin combo. The slip rings on the cork grip holds the spinning reel and the guides aren’t conventional fly guides. Cool you’re carrying it on your Harley.....what kind of fly fishing are you going to do? Rivers or lakes? Just wondering because that rod looks pretty heavy (line weight) for smaller streams/fish.
