OK gurus, just purchased a nice 6# from a second hand place a few weeks ago.
I think its a bargain given that it casts beautifully and I have boated 6 Bass on surface fly in two trips thus far!!
Its a CUSTOM GRAPHITE INTREPID 8`5" two piece Model #COG2F85. AFTMA 6-7.
Came with a Diawa SF708 reel spooled with a cortland light tan floater.
Best part though....only paid $70 for the whole shooting match.

Anyone have any clues on the rod?

Regards, Randall.

Randall,
The intrepid range of fly rods are or were handled in Aus by EJ Todd the Loomis people.I remember a loooooonnnnngggg time ago using one in an 8wt for river bass and it worked very well.They don't have any probs that I know of.Good value and cast well.I think they retailed at around $120-140.Ebjoy your bargain. :)

The $70 question must be Randall, where did you find that little bargain?????????
I'd like to head up to Maroon more often this Summer. If you're looking for a decky give me a call. I'll get my boat up there when I can also.
See ya
