I won this rod in a fishing photo contest and was told it was a fly shop demo. Since it didn't come with a rod case or sock I purchased new ones from Cabelas, which are included with this offer. I cast the rod once and like its action, which I would characterize as medium fast. I'm selling it because it's a 2 pc. rod and I prefer 4 pc. for travel. I already have a G. Loomis 4 pc. 7 wt. I'm asking $95 for the rod, sock and tube.
