Diamondback Fly Rods



Diamondback fly rods are becoming very well known in the fly fishing industry. These rods are hand crafted in the mountains of Vermont. I casted one of the 9 weight Diamondflys and found it to be very powerful and smooth. Do yourself a favor and check out these fly rods. They are not as well known as some of the other brands but for the price and craftsmanship, I think it would be worth your while to check out Diamondback fly rods. Check out some of the rods below from my partner site and decide for yourself. You can also read reviews on these rods.
