An RK Bolt bamboo fly rod, 8'6", 2-piece, 2-tip and built for a #5 line. Serial #8601. The rod weighs 4 ounces. Mint, unfished condition with the plastic still on the grip. This rod was made from Howells blanks, which Robert offers from a very limited supply. Medium fast action. The rod sections are stained a chestnut color and done in a two-opposed node pattern. Brown main wraps with yellow edges and a band of red at the keeper. Carbide stripper and chrome snake guides. The ferrules are fully overwrapped and the female welt has a tiny “R.K. Bolt” stamp. The female sports a knurled brass and cork ferrule plug. Excellent varnish. The cork grip is 6" long and turned to a western profile with a hidden pocket cap for the uplock screwlock seat. The screwlock is made by Robert and is stamped “R.K. Bolt, Maker” with a nicely radiused end cap. The rod shaft is semi-hollow built and the screwlock barrel has a roller die stamp depicting a hollow-built rod section. The rod packs into a red cloth bag and an aluminum tube with the Robert's data sticker affixed to it.

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.
