FE Thomas Special Bamboo Fly Rod 9' 3/2 #8/9
$ 750
1927
An FE Thomas Special bamboo fly rod, 9', 3-piece, 2-tip (one tip is short 4"). Serial #6154. 6.1 ounces. Medium fast action for what feels to me like a #8 or #9. Used and but for the short tip it is in pretty decent condition. The varnish is hard with a few chips missing here and there. There are some small cosmetic casting cracks at the ferrules. The ferrule fits are good and the rod could use a minor straighten. The wraps are brown with a red edge at the keeper and male ferrules and 3-7-3 signature wraps. Reverse twist snake guides. The grip is 6" long and shaped to a medium blunt cigar. The seat is a downlocking aluminum screwlock with a nickel silver pocket cap. The serial number is stamped on the bottom of the pocket cap. The rod packs into a heavy brown cloth bag and aluminum tube.

Shipping Information
- 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.
