Payne 226 Salmon Rod 13' 3/2 #9/10

SRC2


A rare Payne 13' two-handed salmon rod. Payne catalogs have this model listed as a 226. By my feel it should cast a #9 or #10 weight line. Very good condition only very lightly used. This rod was one of the favorite mentioned by Charlie Phair in his early (and excellent) book on atlantic salmon fishing. Downlocking screw lock reel seat. 6" bottom grip with a button, and a 10" top grip in the standard Payne cigar style. Wrapped brown with green edges, and with purple at the hook keeper and ferrules. Beautiful varnish, just gorgeous. The rod comes with a bag for the tips and a larger canvas bag for carrying all of the rod sections.

Shipping Information

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.
Other Terms
Unless otherwise noted, all items come with a 3-day inspection period during which they can be returned to us for a full refund (provided that they are in the same condition in which they left our shop). Return shipping is the responsibility of the buyer. If an item is returned, we will issue a refund within 10 days upon receipt. Refunds will be either administered by providing a check or, when possible, by canceling a credit card purchase.
