Chris Bogart's Yellow Rose
Length: 7 ' 2 pc
Line weight: DT #2
Ferrule size 11/64
This started out as my Shenandoah Lite and is now called
"Yellow Rose". I named it after my signature fly shown on my
homepage and also because I put Pink! silk wraps with
yellows tipping on it (looks beautiful). I have fished this
rod and it is a dream. A little longer rod that will power a
you need to go on a mountain stream. It is as accurate as
you want for a rod. The original taper given to me by Jon
Parker, was a one piece nodeless. I modified it and built it
as a 2 piece nodeless that seemed to have captured the
original taper just fine. I will have this rod at Grayling.
I have cast a spring creek 2WT DT, a "H" level taper
enameled silk. and a Phoenix 2wt DT with it. For my money
the level taper line really makes this rod perform.
