Bought this a few years ago with the intentions of getting in to fly fishing, but never got the chance to use it. So up for sale is a Diamonback Backwater graphite fly rod. It is 9 ft and is three pieces with a padded tube with a sling. Sorry, I’m obviously not very knowledgeable on the right terms here. Somebody give me a number, you know better than I do what this is worth, I was thinking $50?
I was thinking $50?
Sure, I’ll take it. I bought that exact same rod many years ago as my first fly rod and have an attachment, I guess.
They use to come in a crush proof aluminum tube.

Wow. Heck of a nice guy and I’m pleased as punch with the fly rod. Didn’t realize just how much wear I put on the old rod till I gave this new one a couple freehand whips in the front yard.
You never know who you will meet on the interweb but, seasick11 came through in spades. He even bought me a beer.
Well, I negotiated him buying me a beer as part of the purchase price. Like a rebate.
By the way here are the old and new rods in their cases. I miss when they use to give you the crush proof aluminum tubes like on my old fly rod.
Ty, it was great to meet you. It’s nice to find people like you who are just good, down to earth people. Hard to find that these days. Like I told you yesterday, always an open spot on my boat if you want to try to fish out my way. Just shoot me a text or PM me on here.
