For sale here is a Payne Model 100H bamboo rod - 7'6" 2/2 for a 5 weight line (some like it with a DT4). The rod is in excellent original condition. There is a bit of light bag burn to the varnish that can most likely be polished out. All sections are full length with very slight sets in both tips.
Chestnut silks tipped with gold, gold and purple tipping at the winding check and male ferrules. Bronzed ring hook keeper. The cigar grip measures 6" with moderately soiling that has developed into a wonderful patina. Blued nickel silver cap and ring reel seat over a mortised Spanish cedar spacer. The butt cap features the Payne stamp only. There is light wear to the reel seat and a small dent in the butt cap. The blued nickel silver ferrules measure 12/64 with an excellent fit. The rod weighs a lean 3.55 oz. Medium fast dry-fly action. Includes the original bag with hang tag and tube.
