new rod
Added a fiberglass fly rod (6'6" 3wt) to my collection today. Couldn't find any big 'gills to test it, but I did break it in with a couple average ones.
Overhead and roll casts are both easy and accurate with it, but the wind tested my ability today.

I know it's a much faster action then the Lamiglas 3wt I had a couple years ago. I'd rate it as a medium action. Traded the Lamiglas rod for a bamboo 3wt, and that's a fun little rod to fish!

David,
I'm not sure what brand the blank is. It's a 3 piece with spigot ferrules.

GREAT SHOT of the fish and gear ,love these shots cause it gives proper perspective of how big the fish is. What kind of blank is the rod made with ? A beauty for sure and Congrats !!!

Carl,
It's a 3 weight made by a custom rod maker that uses the name "Cane and Silk" on his rods and makes bamboo & fiberglass rods.
