Walton Powell Bamboo Fly Rod 8' 2/2 #5
$ 1,000

A Walt Powell bamboo fly rod, 8', 2-piece, 2-tip, and built for a #5 line. It weighs 4.1 ounces on my scale. This has been a one-owner rod who requested that Walt build this in semi-hollow construction, and the original owner's name is inked on the butt along Walt's signature. "S.#2-291" is inked above the male ferrule on both tips and just below the female on the butt. Medium-fast full flexing action. The rod is in excellent used condition with some soiling to the grip, a few small reel foot impressions on the spacer, but no other meaningful wear that I could find. Two opposed node pattern with a matte finish to the cane. Wrapped red throughout, including the intermediates. Two dark ceramic strippers and chrome guides and tip tops. Bright swiss-style ferrules. The grip is 6" log and shaped to a medium blunt cigar. The reel seat is a bright cap and ring over what looks a bit like a stabilized cedar spacer. The rod packs into a green cloth bag and a black frost coated aluminum tube with clear anodized aluminum fittings.

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.
