Description: Diamondback Americana Fly Rod For 2004, Diamondback is proud to announce the new Americana series. The former All-American has been updated with another great value fly rod from Diamondback. The Americana is a sanded gray blank with Vermont green wraps, nickel silver colored hardware and a hard maple reel seat (freshwater models only).
An advanced combination of craftsmanship and performance, the Americana series is a unique fly rod that emphasizes quality as much as affordability. These medium-fast action rods are easy loading for smooth short casts, yet still retain plenty of power when you need to reach out further and deliver your fly on target. Designed with a taper to suit most any level of angler, the Diamondback Americana series features hard chrome stainless steel guides and an anodized nickel silver colored reel seat for years of trouble-free performance.
