Chestonia 9' 8 wt. Graphite Fly Rod Hand Made in Michigan by Mark

9' 8 wt. IM8 Matte Blue graphite fly rod.
Very light weight.
Sharp high end Graphite grip with matching fighting butt.
Gold 6601 aluminum reel seat with black graphite insert.
"Proof Brand" light wire gold guides.
Black wraps with metallic gold trim.
Medium Fast tip. Strong butt section. Throws big streamers well. This a classic Michigan Steelhead set up.

I cast every rod I make to check for action and proper build. Every rod I make is unique and one of a kind. I may use the same blank again but trim, reel seat combinations, and guides are all carefully thought out. Sleeve is included. Each rod is labeled, dated, and hand signed. I am a retired florist/ greenhouse grower. I build rods, tie flies, and garden. I fish as often as I can. Chestonia is a bridge on the Jordan River in Michigan near my family cottage.
