$ 7,250

A stunning Sam Carlson "Four" quad bamboo fly rod, 6'6", 2-piece, 2-tip, and built for a #4 line. Serial #851-4652. Made in 1985, the first rod that year. Medium-fast action. The rod is pristine, mint and unfished. No grip soiling, no ferrule cracks, no internal brassing to the guides. Light flame temper with a superior varnish coat. The wraps are maroon with black edges at the keeper and male ferrules. 3/2/1 black signature wraps. “Carlson Four”, the serial number, and “CW Sam Carlson Maker” are all inscribed on the rod. Black stripper and black snakes with small hoop tip tops. The ferrules are oxidized black and fit perfectly. The grip is 5 1/4" long, flatted to the tenite cork check and shaped to a “Western” profile. Walnut slide band and cap and ring seat. I love the delicate way the slide ring is domed and knurled. Both the cap and ring are oxidized jet black. The rod packs into a tan cloth bag and an aluminum gray frost coated tube which is fully wrapped in craft paper. This rod is an absolute stunner and could be the centerpiece of any rod collection.

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.
