Are these worth it? I didnt see them on their website and havent seen them before so I'm not sure.

the Pro Graphite was their starter rod... now it's called the Premier & it's made overseas somewhere... I believe the Pro Graphite was about the same price as the Premier...
what size are you looking for?
I have a brand new Premier set up (rod, reel, backing, line & leader) unused new in the plastic tube... I'd let it go for $100 ($140 on the web site)

That's a good deal from Peter. There were a few people on this board that really liked the pro graphite model. decent rod for the money.

Hi Flyfishpj...
I'm one of the people around this board that like the Pro-Graphite - and I like them a LOT!
I'm in Central Florida and fish the PG in warmwater lakes and canals for Bream and Bass and Pickerel. Mostly I use a 4-wgt. and an older 5/6-wgt. I've fished the PGs so much I can do it in my sleep by now so even though it isn't a "bragging" rod, I can promise you it will fish well because I've caught hundreds of fish on them.
Best,
5/0

I have a 7.5 ft 4/5 wt pro graphite that i really like. Mine cost me $85 about 5-6 years ago. I have never cast one of the longer rods but I would definitely recomend a pro graphite.

I have a Pro Graphite 9' 5wt. I have found this to be a good rod. Although I'm no expert, I would say this is a good rod. I first started on this rod, and it worked well. As far as I'm concerned, you can't go wrong with lifetime waranty, either.

A pro graphite was my first real fly rod. I learned a lot with it and also caught a lot of fish with it. Sounds like a good deal. Those were the innocent days before I bought too much stuff. Now before I go fishing I have to labor over the decision of which rod to bring.
