Over the last few years of writing The Fiberglass Manifesto I have accumulated, bought, borrowed, traded, been given, or loaned quite a few fly rods and in somewhat of an "underground" way have sent several of these demos around to prospective customers so that they could cast and fish a certain fly rod before placing an order. So far so good and besides a cracked ferrule on the Kabuto 7033, which Graywolf Rods expertly fixed, there have been no real issues.
This week I posted a list of available fly rods on TFM and will be adding to this list as most fly rods are entered into the program.
