VFT274


For sale here is a beautiful rod from J.D. (Jeff) Wagner - a Model 273-FS -- 7'3" 2/2 4-5wt bamboo rod from his Signature series. Serial no. 502-24. The rod is in near mint condition. All sections are full length and straight. 

The rod features darkly tempered flats with wonderful glass-like varnish. It has a taper not unlike the Paul Young Driggs River rod. I would call it a medium fast 4 wt and prefer it as a fully-loading parabolic 5 wt. Transparent dark amber colored wraps with black wraps at the ferrules. Bright guides. Agate stripping guide. Handsome ring hook keeper in a twisted rope pattern. Knurled nickel silver checks. The cigar grip measures 6". Nickel silver up-locking reel seat over a fine mortised walnut spacer. The Swiss-style ferrules have a perfect fit, nice and snug. The rod weighs 4.35 oz.

Includes the original bag with label and black powder-coated tube with label. Don't miss out on this fine rod from a great maker.

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.
