An excellent Gary Howells bamboo fly rod, 8'3", 2-piece, 2-tip, built for a #6 line. Serial #5711, with a manufacture date of 1991 (the rod also comes with a letter from Gary to the customer). The rod weighs 4.3 ounces on my scale. Mint, uncast condition. Oven tempered cane in a medium brown color. Brown main wraps with yellow edges and chrome snake guides. Superb varnish. The grip is 6 1/2" long and turned to a full wells profile with a hidden pocket cap for the uplocking screwlock which is made of polished aluminum. The rod is pin straight and in the same condition as when it left Gary's shop. The rod packs into a maroon cloth bag and a grey frost coated aluminum tube with a gold anodized collar and the Howells data sticker.
