For sale here is a 9’ 3/2 FE Thomas Special Streamer fly rod. Ideal with a 7 weight line. Serial number A310. Built in 1940.

The rod has an attractive swelled butt, and ring hook keeper. Tapered Ritz grip. Nickel silver sliding band reel seat with cork spacer. Blued guides.

Comes with original green bag and original brass capped tube with "Thomas Rod" shield label.
