Digging through the rod closet and found another rod I don't think I ever bothered to cast before. Decided might be time to try some of these rods before trying to sell them off.(May have to keep this one)

This rod was a true surprise. It's marked Garcia 2537T Fast Taper. The rod has a staggered ferrule design and is a rocket launcher in my opinion. Put an 8wt line on this puppy and would throw the whole thing with no problem.

Have others here had much experience with the fast taper Garcia Rods? Also, does anyone know what other lengths these rods may have came in?

Casting this rod really makes me want to get back into bass fishing. I made a deal on about twent-five Fly Rod Hula Poppers last year, now if I could only find them

I really like the staggered ferrule Garcia Conolons. I have/had a 7'10" rod that was a gem. I can't keep the Garcia Conolon model numbers straight, so I have no idea what it was without doing some serious research.

I have the exact model, a yard sale find.

Considering fishing it next time out, assume it is a 7 wt, maybe a 6wt....will get back with a report on how it casts. The tip section is longer than the butt section, but 8&1/2' which is not my preference.

My 7'10" was the Dry-Fly action which was actually pretty fast.
