A nice Don Schroeder quad fly rod, 8', 3-piece, 2-tips, built for a #4 line. Serial #55714. Very good used condition. Minor grip soiling, a hook dig between the tip-top and the first guide are the principal signs of use. Flamed cane in a spiral node pattern. Light brown wraps with darker brown edges, very dark brown at the ferrule (double wrapped). Agate stripper with snake brand snake guides. Excellent quality varnish work. Squared truncated step ferrules. One ferrule plug was stuck in the ferrule and came apart when taken out - the ferrule is fine but the plug may need replacing should you prefer to have one. 6" slim cigar grip. Walnut mortised slide band seat and the oxidized butt cap is stamped "D.G. Schroeder, Rod Co." in a cartouche. 4.2 ounces. Packs in a brown cloth bag with a stiffener and a silver frost coated rod tube with Don's data sticker and a brass collar and top.
