Pinky Gillum Bamboo Fly Rod 8'6" 3/2 #6
$ 3,150

A Harold "Pinky" Gillum bamboo fly rod, 8'6", 3-piece, 2-tip, and built for a #6 line. Serial #600 The rod weighs 5.4 ounces on my scale. "H.S. Gillum 'Custom built' ” inked on the butt. This rod has been refinished and the choice of thread color isn't quite accurate. I also suspect that the midsection is a replacement though the butt and tips look original. Flame treated cane. The wraps are eggshell with black/white/black edges at the keeper and male ferrules. Perfection stripper and classic H.S.S. snakes. The ferrules have some wear but do not click. The rod is straight. The grip is 6 1/2" long and styled to a Western with a hidden pocket cap. The seat is an uplock aluminum screwlock with the typical Gillum varnished spacer. The grip is clean though it has been sanded in a lathe and in order to hold the back with a point center a small hole was drilled in the bottom cap. Both the bag and the aluminum tube are non-original.
