3924


A Homer Jennings bamboo fly rod, 8', 2-piece, 2-tip, and built for a #5 line. Serial #417.
An impressive rod from Homer's hands. Small pressed nodes, mirrored tips, great varnish. Fast semi-full flexing action. The rod has been lightly used - no casting cracks at the ferrule wraps and some soiling to the grip. All sections are straight and ferrule fits are good. Light blond cane with a 3-up node pattern. Tips as stated are mirrored. The main wraps are light tan with cinnamon edges on all. The stripping guide is a red agate and the snakes are chrome. The Swiss ferrules are truncated and the ferrule wraps are brown. The grip is 6" long and is a blunt cigar heavily weighted to the front. The reel seat is a nickel silver downlocking screw-ock with a mortised, varnished, tiger maple insert. The rod bag is tan colored cloth and the rod tube is a dark olive anodized aluminum with brass fittings.

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.
