First Time Out with the New Jeff Blood Fly Rod
Channel: Wetzel Fishing
Date: 2021-05-08

We got the opportunity to try these rods out a few weeks ago and we fell in love at first cast. We decided to pick some up and show you how they performed for our first day out with them. Overall, they performed great. The extra backbone, length, and casting ability of the rod gave us a huge advantage on the creek. Unfortunately, the steelhead run is about over, but we're very excited to use this rod on a variety of species until fall! The rod is linked below if you are interested!

Thanks for watching!
