I got a Carcia Conolon, 4 star, 2110-D, 6'6" light action spin rod and was hoping to get a date of it's production. Can anyone help?
Thanx
Thom

Hi Thom,
Was away for a few days, your rod I think is from 1971, the butt wraps were on the gold rod with stainless steel spigot ferrule only during that year. The 1970 was gold four star without butt those butt wraps and the 1972 had morfed into the 5 star marron rods.
Anyway, yours catalogued as a 6 1/2ft light action, two piece, internal ss spigot ferruled, with five Allen carbide guides and tip top. Rated for 4-10 pound test lines and 1/4 to 1/2 oz lures. I have the same rod. Fact is I have the whole set pretty much, that spinning rod, the 2402D and 2404D fly rods and the 2202D Spin Casting rod. They are all extremely nice rods and some of my favorites.
Richard

Hey Richard,

Good to hear from you. Missed having you around here. Do any fishin on your days away? It is a pretty time of year to be out. Thanx for the info on this rod. It balances really well with that 3800 reel. The action is sweet and it fishes really well.

Thanx again,
Thom
