Item Description
The exquisite bamboo rod was made by an unknown professional rod builder in 1995. It appears to have never been used (but that can not be confirmed). The quality of the materials and the workmanship are excellent and have been inspected in detail by DVFF's premier rod builder. All rod sections including the two rod tips have no defects.
The wraps and epoxy are so perfectly done that they almost disappear into the rod itself.
Most importantly, the action of this 5 wt bamboo, is closer to graphite response than most bamboo rods. As stated by the DVFF rod builder, it is "not a noodle".
The custom real leather case and sock provide full protection for this heirloom.
Item Special Note
This bamboo rod is made for the serious caster who enjoys both the beauty and the privilege of being able to fish with a superior quality bamboo rod.
