Abu Garcia Conolon Graphite 8'6" fly rod

[pecheux]

I have had this Abu Garcia Conolon Graphite 8'6" fly rod for over 20 years and used it once for approx 15 minutes.
Now I am trying to find information regarding this fly rod over the internet and I cannot find zip. I do find Conolon with Fiberglass stories ... but nothing with the mix Conolon Graphite composite.

Anyone familiar with this fly rod ? and what would be it's value $ at this time.

Although their reels are up there in the "best of" category I would guess the rod isn't worth as much as you paid for it fifteen years ago. Interesting, I had rods made by them (not fly rods) that had the Conolon name stamped on them. Rick.

Most Conolon rods are fiberglass composition. My fly rod is a combination Conolon/Graphite.

I have a casting rod that is Conolon Graphite and had a sin cast rod as well. I'm guessing but I'm thinking about twenty years old. Rick.
