Orvis Shooting Star Bamboo Fly Rod 9' 2/2 #9

3008


An Orvis Shooting Star bamboo fly rod, 9', 2-piece, 2-tip, and built for a #9 line. Serial #47312. The rod weighs 6.6 ounces on my scale. Medium slow full flexing action. Very light use with some grip soiling and minor cracking at the ferrule wraps. The ferrule fits are good and the rod is straight. Impregnated cane with a chestnut oven color and three-up nodes. The wraps are brown. There are three carbide strippers on the butt and chrome snakes and tip tops the rest of the way. The step ferrules are polished. The grip is 7" in length and tapered to a medium cigar. The all-aluminum silver anodized seat is a down-lock with locking nut, slide, and a pocket cap. A pull-out plug keeps the fixture for the fighting butt clean. The fighting butt is stored in the grey cloth bag. The large aluminum tube has a few minor dents and the Orvis data sticker is in 95% original condition. 

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.
