Pinky Gillum Bamboo Fly Rod 8' 3/2 #6/7
$ 4,250
3201
A Harold "Pinky" Gillum bamboo fly rod, 8', 3-piece, 2-tip, and built for a #6 or #7. Serial I-569. The rod weighs 5 ounces on my scale. The rod was re-finished at T&T in 1977 and looks to have been lawn cast a few times since then. A letter from Tom Codella at T&T accompanies the rod. Fast DF action. The T&T varnish job is, as always, superb. Lightly flamed cane with brown main wraps and yellow edges on all. The stripping guide is a perfection and the snakes are black. The step ferrules are oxidized jet black. The grip is 6" long and turned to a western style. The downlocking screw lock is aluminum with the typical Gillum richly varnished tiger stripe spacer. The pocket cap is nickel silver and stamped “H.S. Gillum, Maker” in a cartouche. The bottom cap is aluminum with a target inscribed. The bag and tube appear to be original, however the Gillum data sticker is only about 20% intact.

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.
