7 Weight 10' 6" Custom-Made Flyrod

This Rainshadow blank custom made rod was crafted by Rich Koontz aka "casts-by-fly".
It is a 7 weight 10' 6" two-piece flyrod. The knob at the base of the handle unscrews
to telescope down to create a switch rod. A cordura coverd hard case is included.

I'm asking $195, but I will consider a trade for something else. I will have this rod at work
(Hickory Beer Distributing, Hermitage, PA) or I can bring it to the Oil Creek Outing for you to try cast.

(I'm not sure why the last photo of the telescoping handle will not show on this thread, maybe someone else can figure out how to make it appear)

    Any reasonable offers considered!

    Make an offer. I will also consider trading it for other fishing equipment.

    (I already have two other 7 weight rods)

    greg,

    What are you looking for in rods in trade? If I have something you want maybe we could do a swap. I always liked that rod, even if it was a little heavy.

    Thanks,
    rick

    How about a 3xl Browning Hydro-suede hunting parka in Mossy Oak?  I love this coat but it is just too big for me.  Last year I sat in a climber all day on the first day of buck and I only had a t-shirt and a sweat-shirt on under it.
