Lilly Pond Yellow Glass Series Build

Brian Ebert of Lilly Pond Rod Company found a bit of time this summer to work on a few builds and recently completed a James Green Yellow Glass Series 8033 which he took along on a trip to the Driftless Area.


Brian wrote...  "I thought I'd drop you a line with some photos of the James Green Yellow Glass Series eight foot three piece three weight along with a photo from the Driftless trip.  The fish were very spooky and it was HOT out.  The sun was bright keeping the fish down after late morning and fishing was relatively slow but was a good time anyway.  Always is.  The rod is very nice and what I would consider to be a true three weight that can punch a long cast into a stiff breeze.  I was surprised to see that.  Casts a good variety of flies from size 18 dry flies to size 8 beadhead buggers.  It's also at home casting ten feet to forty feet and beyond."






Brian is offering this James Green blank build for sale for $275.00 plus $16.00 shipping.  Please send Brian an email if you are interested in purchasing this fly rod.
