I have three trout spey rods for sale that need to be used and just don't come out of the case ever.

#1: ACR Trout Two Hand (TTH) 11'9" 5wt 5 piece.
this rod was used when I got it. Has initials on it. It is in great shape and is a tribute to Gary's older rods with very high quality craftsmanship and wood in the lower handle. In very good used shape. I planned to take it to Alaska at some point for trout..... hasn't happened. Harding and sons rod tube. Time to move it. $Sold

#2 TFO Deer Creek 11' 4wt. 4 piece
As close to new as possible. Very little time on the water. Comes with TFO tube. $SOLD plus $25 shipping and insurance.

#3 Anglers Roost Enterprises. 11' 2/3wt 3 piece.
Cult classic. I built this rod back in 2011. It has premium hardware, Lemke seat, a grip turned by me, snake brand guides, and a cordura covered case. I will throw in the line Steve Godahall custom made for the rod. It is a skandit. It is an integrated line with ELF low memory mono. It has my initials, "Widowmaker", and 2/3 switch written on it. $SOLD plus actual shipping for the rod and line.

PayPal preferred

You did a great job on that ARE. I have the same rod, built by them, and it's surprisingly good.

that she do. I'm glad to see that ARE is back in business. Off topic, but their 7/8 13ft spey is a sweet rod, and the price is right.
 
I had heard that they were coming back. Interesting. They definitely had a cult following back in the day.
 
Funny but I got an ACR 14’ 5wt. 6 pieces. I called Steve Godshall about getting a line for it and he told me that it’s the same rod as their 11’9” 5 wt 5 piece so he built me another handle for it so I can use it either way. Fun rod.

Does the handle section just plug into the 4th section? Thats pretty nifty.

Also now I wonder: is the handle the 1st section or is the rod tip the 1st section?
 
Top 4 sections are same. New handle plugs into that for the 11’9” 5 piece, original handle and extra lower section plug into top 4 sections for 14’ 6 piece.
