While fishing on Wednesday I happened on a few occasions to walk by a black pick-up with a rod sticking out of the bed. The rod looked like a casting rod given
the stoutness of the reinforced tiptop. On one walk by, the owner was nearby and asked how I was doing and what I used. In the course of conversation he picked
his rod up to show me what he was using and low and behold it was an 8' black glass fly rod with gold foil trim and a black automatic reel. From the looks
of it, the rod was a late seventies creation and I'm pretty sure the reel, line and rod had never been apart from the day it was put together. I asked if
he fished much and he said he used it almost every day. Whatever it was that was one tough ass rod and one lucky fisherman.
Glass rods and automatic reels are forever.
