A nice Paul Young Perfectionist model bamboo fly rod, 7'6", 2-piece, 2-tip. This rod has one wet tip and one extra heavy tip, the latter of which gives it a slower-than-usual parabolic action. 3.2 ounces. The rod was refinished and re-gripped by Bob Summers on 3/20/2011 and is also noted on the shaft "Perfectionist Model with x heavy exp tip". Flamed cane done in a two opposed node pattern. Light brown main wraps with a carbide stripper and black snakes. The ferrule is oxidized and is an original super Z with the logo stamp. The grip is 5 1/2" long in a ventilated medium cigar. The reel seat is mortised all-cork with two aluminum slide rings. The rod packs into a grey cloth bag and an all aluminum tube.
