Hello everyone! Thanks for taking the time to check out my post. I am thinning my quiver. There will probably be at least a few more to post when I get organized. More photos/details available for any of the items listed, just ask. Also happy to do a video call to show any particulars. All rods include factory tubes except the 0wt (aftermarket tube) and 12wt - sock only. Rod usage ranges from like new condition to fished. I do not abuse my gear. I will pass along my fishy karma and mojo as best I can.

I will be posting reels and accessories, hopefully soon. If you are interested in a pairing for any of the rods listed below, let me know and I will tell you what I have that I am willing to part with.

Prices may be negotiable, more so if you want multiple rods.
Prices do not include shipping, which will be at actual costs. I use pirate ship to keep things as inexpensive as possible and no shipping 2pc rods.
Located near Lake Ballinger for pick up.

Rods:
000wt Sage TXL 7’10” 3 piece - this rod is labeled “demo” which if you are familiar with these rods is pretty common. This rod comes with a small Japanese click pawl reel and a basically new line (00wt line - I personally thing it casts best with this line). There is a little bit of damage on the top of the cork and the butt of the reel seat is slightly askew. I received the rod this way and it does not impact performance or the joy of setting the hook. $525 $500

0wt RDP fly rods custom 7’6” 4 piece - $OUT ON PERMANENT LOAN

3wt. G Loomis Adventure 7’9” 2 piece - Great creek rod, was my daily driver for my early trout years. Cork is not clean, but it is ready to find fish. $135 $125 $100

4wt St Croix imperial 9’ 2 piece - classic trout rod with great presentation. Rod tube has a little bend to it but the rod is straight. $135 $125 $100

4wt Echo river glass 8’ 4 piece - $SOLD

5/6wt Hardy Sirrus 8’ 3 piece - $SOLD

8wt Echo Bad Ass Glass 8’ 4 piece (quick shot version) - $SOLD

8wt Sage X 10’ 4 piece - $SOLD

9wt Hardy Zane 8’ 4 piece - purchased for windy days on a boat and backup purposes. I cannot recall actually casting this rod in action, just at the park. $260 $240 $225

12wt TFO Mangrove 9’ 4 piece - $SOLD

5/6wt Hardy Sirrus 3’ 3 piece - This is a hybrid glass by Hardy and is an awesome all rounder for those that want a slower, but not sloooow action. Previous owner has a professional install a down locking reel seat. I have fished this with true 5wt lines up to a heavier 6wt line
and prefer the 5.5-6wt lines on it. Very light use. $225 $210
That can't be the right length on the Sirrus, can it?
 
There are 2 Hardy rods - the gray one (Zane) is a graphite 9wt. The mustard-ish one (Sirrus Glass) is a 5/6wt glass/graphite hybrid.
 
Hmm. One of my favorite rods - an 8wt BAG QS - just so happens to have gotten stranded in Minnesota recently due to an irreversibly stuck center ferrule.

I'm only a couple miles from Ballinger; any chance I could meet you to nab that one tomorrow? Either before 10am or after 2?
Thanks!
