About a month ago I went by Creative Sports in Pleasant Hill.  On the counter was a telescoping rod that extended to about 11 feet.  There was no reel for it.  I'm guessing that this is what you are talking about.  If you give them a call, they may be able to give you more info about it.  I believe they said the rod was around $100.

Black Cloud kinda tried that out on the Little Truckee... Lol.
Why would you want a simpler method of fly fishing. The harder the method, the more satisfaction.

To tell you the truth... I have a nice rod, but my reel sucks. I have the cheapest fly line you can buy. My waders aren't even waders anymore because of a couple quarter sized holes. I get your point though.

I find Tenkara an interesting alternative for small streams, and small fish, but I must admit, I love throwing line!

Lilwhipper the reason y that line is the cheapest out there is because I gave it to you or free.
