Orvis Battenkill Deluxe 6'6 Bamboo Rod
$ 850
VFT7478
For sale here is a 6'6 Orvis Battenkill Deluxe. The rod was purchased from Len Codella in 1990. Serial #17260 built in 1955 by George Reid and Cal Skinner during the Wes Jordan era. The ferrules, wraps and cork grip were restored at Orvis shortly after the current owner acquired the rod from Len. The rod has not been fished post-restoration, so it's in near mint restored condition (there are still some very minor marks on the wooden reel seat spacer). The factory original tube is missing the sticker. The rod bag is a replacement. It casts a DT4 or WF5 very nicely.

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.

Refunds will be either administered by providing a check or, when possible, by canceling a credit card purchase.
