Chestonia 9' 5 wt. Graphite Fly Rod Hand Made in Michigan by Mark

*Chestonia 9'0" 5wt. 4pc. Graphite Fly Rod Hand Made by Mark in Michigan.
* Red/Brown, glossy, Graphite IM-6 blank. This 4piece has a smooth action. I would call in medium fast. I like it.
Gun metal up locking reel seat with unique burl pattern.
*Proof ash light wire guides.
*'Snake' brand black nickel stripping guide
*Nice cork grip in brown burl in half wells.
* Dark brown and grey/cream wraps with a black accent.
*Perfect all around blank, light weight, but very strong. It casts like a dream. Perfect for small dry flies and light weight streamers.
*This is a beautiful build.

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.
