Jim Hidy Bamboo Fly Rod 7'6" 3/2 #3

3645


A very nice Jim Hidy bamboo fly rod, 7'6", 3-piece, 2-tip, and built for a #4 line. Serial "L198H-3". The rod weighs 3.2 ounces on my scale. The rod appears mint or perhaps lawn cast a time or two. There are no cracks at the ferrule wraps, no hand soiling, etc. The action is a medium semi-parabolic. Light wheatstraw color cane. Small three-up nodes pattern. The main wraps are transparent with tiny black edges and brown at the ferrules. The stripping guide is carbide and the snake brand light wire and oversized snakes are black nickel. The ferrules are truncated swiss style oxidized to a gunmetal color. The grip is 6 1/4" long and turned to a full wells weighted to the front. The nickel silver slide band reel seat is quilted maple with a light coat of sealer. The rear cork check, ring and butt cap are oxidized gray. The rod packs into a white cloth bag and an Arnie Mason leather rod tube.

Shipping Information
We ship at cost to the buyer and in the majority of cases do so via UPS with full insurance and signature. 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.
