I have a Heddon Bamboo Fly Rod for sale. The rod is 9'6" long, 3/2, 2 1/2 F. The rod is in VG
condition. I would have rated the rod as EX condition if not for a 2 1/2" long clear repair wrap about 2 1/8" above the cork grip (see photo). It
appears that the repair wrap was done due to two of the splines having a couple small splinters. The repair wrap is very well done and does not affect the
casting action of the rod at all. I've landed several large trout and steelhead with this rod and have had no problems with it at all. That is the only flaw on this rod.
The wraps are medium maroon with lemon yellow tipping. The hardware is all original. Cork grip is in VG condition. The reelseat spacer is charcoal gray white marbled. The reelseat is the classic heddon downlocking. No clicks in ferrules. Varnish is in VG+ condition. All sections are full length and straight. This rod is a trade model heddon. Quality-wise this rod is equal to the #17. Not sure about the model as the rod's model name was partially lost during a refinish job sometime in the past (see photo).
The rod sack is original. The rod sack is in good condition. Some stains present and a few small holes also. The rod case is a green cordura covered DB Dunn (see photo)
The price is $95 (includes shipping/insurance to anywhere in continental US).
