921


A very nice Bob Summer Midge model fly rod, 6'4", 2-piece, 2-tip, built for a #3 or #4 line. Serial #121583. Weighs 2.3 ounces. Medium action rod. Near mint condition. Flamed cane in the Young style and the varnish is superb. Light brown wraps with a carbide stripper. Oxidized step ferrules, which are nice and clean with no brassing to the oxidation. The grip is 5 3/4" long in a blunt cigar shape. The rod shaft is lettered "R.W. Summers Co, 6'4" Midge", and "#3 to 4 Line". The bottom of the grip is checked by several rings of varnished walnut and the seat is a cork slide band with two opposed rings of black anodized aluminum. The bottom of the rod is composed of sebera rings of turned and varnished walnut. The rod packs into a green cloth bag with a permanently attached ferrule plug of aluminum with a brass top and collar of Bob's design, and he's an excellent machinist. "RW Summers Rod Co Co, Traverse City, MI, USA" is stamped in a circle on the top.

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.

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.
