An excellent Thomas and Thomas Montana model fly rod, 8'6", 3-piece, 2-tip, built for a #6 line. Serial #3655. 5.9 ounces. Appears to me to be in mint condition. Medium dry fly action for a #6 line to turn over a big fly on a long leader. Impregnated three-up node pattern construction, with oven tempered dark wheat straw can. Inscription on the wrap flat and the owner's name inscribed on the reverse flat. The wraps are a very light yellow with light brown edges on all the wraps, brown at the ferrules with a black edge at the keeper, ferrules, and tip tops. Swiss style ferrules have a collar at the males and are oxidized with the T&T logo stamped on them. The grip is a 6 1/2" long light sculpted in a western style with a hidden pocket cap. The reel seat is an aluminum uplocking screw lock with a slide of nickel silver and stamped "Thomas and Thomas, Makers". The spacer is a mortised and nicely varnished walnut. The nut is paired off from the slide and is aluminum. The bottom cap is incised with a target and is made of nickel silver. The rod packs in a tan cloth bag with a stiffener. The rod tube is brushed aluminum with a brass collar and top.
We ship at cost to the buyer and in the majority of cases do so via UPS with full insurance and signature. There are cheaper options but our experience has been that you get what you pay for and that it's not worth taking risks when shipping what are often one-of-a-kind items. Your shipping estimate will be calculated at checkout and if you have any questions please contact us. Please note the buyers are responsible for any applicable import duties or fees that may levied. Due to the importance of packing items carefully please allow up to two weeks for arrival (depending on how busy we are) though we certainly do our best to get items to you as expeditiously as possible.
Unless otherwise noted, all items come with a 3-day inspection period during which they can be returned to us for a full refund (provided that they are in the same condition in which they left our shop). Return shipping is the responsibility of the buyer. If an item is returned, we will issue a refund within 10 days upon receipt. Refunds will be either administered by providing a check or, when possible, by canceling a credit card purchase.
