VFT4039


For sale here we have a Heddon #50 Deluxe President 3/2 8'6" HDH (5wt) bamboo fly rod. The rod is in fair condition. There is some varnish meltdown and rust on some of the guides and some damage to the wraps. The cane itself is in great condition, no delaminaton and the ferrules are also in good shape. All of the original script is intact. The reel seat though dirty is also great as well as the cork. This rod is an absolute classic among Heddon fans and bamboo enthusiast in general. One of the highest grades made by Heddon. This rod is deserving of a complete restoration, which wouldn't be too hard in the right hands. Rod comes with original Heddon bag and rod tube. Rod weighs 5.35 oz. Size 17/64 and 11/64 ferrules.
