Bryan Wright 0 Report post Posted October 12, 2010 Ok so here is the question. My sone bought a David Wand rod witha martin reel attached. I don't know anything about this rod. I can't find anything on it to tell me what the weight is. How do I tell? This rod is real pretty it has hackle embeded in the laquer the raps look very nice. I don't know if it is a production rod or not. I did a search for David Wand Fly Rods and can't find anything. Maybe someone here knows something or somehwere else I can look. Thanks in advance.
