I have a fly fishing rod that I would like to sell but am not sure about it. It was given to me as a gift many years ago and I have yet to use it so I have opted to try to sell it however, there is not a company logo on it. Which leaves me to believe it may be custom made which is likely since it was given to me by a person that makes fly reels. It is very dark green, bamboo handles with silver end and black graphite (I think) where the reel goes. The only writing seems to be handwritten stating 9′ 6wt. in silver then up the rod the same silver handwritting states 15", 18" 21". If anyone has any info that may be helpful I would greatly appreciate it.

My father needs a new fly fishing reel – so I was wondering. This one has some good articles and fly reels it looks like http://www.classicflyfishing.com/

I ran out of tippet and i dont want to run out to the store to buy more and i have plenty of regular fishing line.

Just wondering,

Since fly reels are pretty much the same as mooching reels, are they capable of being used for trolling for salmon? I’m thinking fly reels such as Sage, Nautilus etc. Thanks!
