Sale

If you are like me, you hate having gear that never gets used. Not that it isn't fun to have a bunch of fly rods in the closet, but gear was meant to be used. To that end, this page will feature used equipment that needs a new home. If you are interested in purchasing something you see here, please contact me via email at TroutZoneAnglers@gmail.com to discuss. Help me clean out the closet to make room for new gear and get a bargain in the process! I prefer to not deal with shipping as I generally don't have time to go to the Post Office during business hours. All prices are for local pickup only. I'm willing to work with you a bit on that location, so let me know when you contact me where you would want to meet to pick up your purchase. I'm glad to let you inspect items and even cast the rods before purchasing.

Like New Dakota Carry-on Rod and Reel Case, standard size, $100 OBO

I bought this for trips that would hopefully include some fly fishing. This rod and reel case will hold standard 9' 4 piece rods and several reels among other things. It has been used a couple of times, but overall still looks brand new. The only reason I'm selling this one is because I got a longer case to fit some of my 10' rods. This is an amazing case that holds a ton of gear. I usually throw in extra fly boxes, extra spools of tippet, leaders, rods, reels, spare spools, etc. A very nice piece of luggage!

Simms Fly Fishing Vest - $15 OBO - Sale Pending

I picked this up used a few years back and intended to start using a vest again. That never happened. So, now someone else can get a steal on a really nice traditional fly fishing vest. If you've been contemplating going with a vest or want to upgrade your current one, this is an extremely well made vest. It is used but still in excellent shape. Size medium.

TFO Triangular Rod Case 9'0" 4 pc. MULTI - $40 

This is the multi case designed for up to 4 rods. It will fit 4 piece rods up to 9' long. This is an excellent rod storage tube for traveling, I'm just using a rod/reel case instead these days so want this to get a good home. In excellent shape. 

Redington Hydrogen 10' 4 weight 4 piece rod - $125 OBO

This is an excellent heavier nymphing rod and also does very well on bigger water. This rod has seen its share of big fish on the Clinch River and also on smaller water where I expect to catch monsters. The first place I fished these rods was on Hatchery Creek in Kentucky for some huge run up rainbow trout. They cast nicely both up close and also at distance for those midging tailwater fish. If you are chasing trophy brown trout in the Smokies, this rod has the backbone to fight those big fish. These rods got a fair amount of use on guide trips, especially on the Clinch River out of the drift boat, but they are still nearly flawless. Pictures are of just one of the rods, but they look almost identical right now. If you're needing a heavier nymphing rod with some reach, try this out. Just one rod left now.
