For sale here is a Wright & McGill Granger "Victory" Model 8642 - 8'6" 3/2 for a 5 weight line. The rod is in excellent original condition, with the only exception being that the midsection female ferrule was reset and re-wrapped by South Creek Ltd. 

The rod features exceptionally dark ammoniated cane with black and bronze jasper silks. There is a spiral intermediate halfway between the stripping guide and the winding check. Oxidized guides. The script on the butt remains clean and bold. Western-style grip with moderate soiling. The grip is free of ridging, hook gouges, or other defects. The patented nickel silver up-locking reel seat is in excellent condition, there are no dents or major scratches. It operates freely and smoothly as it should. The nickel silver ferrules are size 10/64 and 16/64, the fit is nice. The action is a lovey smooth medium-fast with a good deal of backbone. A terrific rod when far and fine casts are necessary. The rod weighs 5.20 oz. includes original bag and cardboard tube with the label 100% intact. A protective shrink wrap has been placed over the entire tube.

Don't pass up this truly excellent blue collar fishing rod.
