Description

Orvis Battenkill Bamboo Fly Rod 8' 6" - 2/2. Serial # 25467 listed as being built by Calvin Skinner 4/20/1959. All original, matching tip sections. Original aluminum rod tube w/ label, worn. This rod has almost certainly been restored (not by me), is in excellent shape with original labelling and serial numbers. Blued ferrules are snug with no ticking. Aluminum threaded down-locking reel seat and cork grip are perfect. Rod tube is original with label, has some slight wear and dents. Line designation on label is barely legible but modern 8wt., equivalent GBG, loads well. Green rod sock is excellent, almost certainly not original.
If you are interested and would like additional photos or information, I can provide them.
ALSO - matching Hardy "The Zenith" or The "Perfect" reel, England made, not listed, could be included for additional price...
