Favourite Black Diamond?
I picked up a B Diamond rod from Bear the other day and I am very impressed with it. I would like to enlarge my collection so would value your experiences with a B Diamond. What is your favourite Black Diamond and why? What rig do you recommend - reel, weight of line, best for plastics or HB's etc). What fish do you target with it? If you could buy three of these rods which would be your choices?

All of them
Its hard to pick one favourite.... I really like the 1-3flats but it really is a finesse rod more suited to open areas.. The 2-5 is nice too... I have used the 6'6 reaper once and liked it...Used the 7 foot and liked that too... I have a sniper which is really nice to fish with but it is more of a power rod designed for the close in stuff... The bluestone (no longer made) is tough as! Awesome little rod that will do just about anything you ask of it I also have a 5wt fly rod that perfoms very well I would look at where you plan to fish to determine what rods suit you best... eddy |

Where do I start. With the rod you have Steve, I would look at getting a 2-4kg 7' Bream Reaper and match it up with a 100 reel. I have a Sustain on mine and love the feel.
