Pinky Gillum Salmon Rod 12' 3/1
$ 2,000
3790
An H.S. "Pinky" Gillum bamboo fly rod, 12', 3-piece, 1-tip. 15.1 ounces. Although there is no signature or die stamp, two independent experts concur with my identification of this rod as a Gillum. Additional information has this rod coming from the Gillum family as Winnie's personal rod, used in the early season. The tube has a shipping label from Martin Keane. Mahogany color cane temper with a two-opposed-node pattern. Superb varnish. Gold main wraps with black edges throughout, and a band of gold and black at the keeper. The stripper is a carbide ring with heavy-wire snake guides. The step ferrules are oxidized jet black. The ferrule fits are as new and the rod is straight. The cigar front grip is 10" long, with a 5" long all-aluminum uplock screw-lock featuring a typical Gillum very-long nut. There are some spots of corrosion on the screwlock barrel. The bottom grip section is 5" long, not including the red rubber button. I suspect the bag is not original, but the tube is.

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.
