Dave Delisi from Sweetgrass rods in Twin Bridges, MT just sent us a beautiful 7′ 9″ 4/5 Quadrate bamboo fly rod. The rod is a little darker than the hex rods we’ve received thus far. It is a 2 piece, two tip rod with a cigar grip and it is fitted with a down lock curly maple reel seat. This Sweetgrass rod is accurate, powerful and just begging to be cast over some pocket water. And yes, it’s spoken for…The new owner, Geoff Adams, tells me that it will be christened in the Little J over the weekend. May the Grannoms begin…

Some time ago Dave sent along these great pictures from a Winter foray with Glenn Bracket to China. While we’ve already found a home for the Quad, our list is growing… If you’d like to discuss Sweetgrass rods please don’t hesitate to drop us a line at info@backwaterangler.com
