Who is "adg"? I have no idea?

Anyone who wants to can have their own brand name fly rods made over seas
now.

When ever I buy anything, I like to recognize the name even if it is
"Hyundai".

Well go to www.adgfish.com and you will see. Their rods are used by
casting champions and the tape they use on their waders is wanted by all
the wader makers including simms.
