The rod pictured below is a 7'-6", 6 weight rod. It's in decent shape & casts a line very well. It feels pretty good in the hand & has a nice progressive action. The label is completely intact & other than a few cosmetic issues that I mention in it's listing, this rod is in really nice condition. It will fish very well.
I've recently added a couple of more vintage fiberglass fly rods to the "Available" page. Both are made by Berkley & about the same age. The rod pictured below is a 7'-6", 6 weight rod. It's in decent shape & casts a line very well. It feels pretty good in the hand & has a nice progressive action. The label is completely intact & other than a few cosmetic issues that I mention in it's listing, this rod is in really nice condition. It will fish very well. The other Berkley rod on the "Available" page is an 8'-0" fiberglass rod in like new, near-mint condition (pictured below). I don't believe this rod was ever fished. If it was, it couldn't have been used more than a couple of times. It has a nice medium action & also feels very comfortable in the hand. There is no line weight designation on this rod, but I think most anglers would get the most out of it with a 6 or a 7 weight line. It does have some scratches on the metal end cap probably because of how its been stored for all these years. Other than that, everything on this rod is like brand new!! It's rare to find one of these rods in as good condition as this one is. Please check it out. These are nice fiberglass rods. If you are a fan of fiberglass fly rods, I think you'll enjoy any of these. They remind me a lot of the rods I grew up fishing & still enjoy using today. If you have any questions about these rods, or anything else, please contact me. I will be listing even more rods in the coming days, so please check back often to see what's been added.
