Baginski, Rolf - "Westwind" Bamboo Rod 8' 3/2 6wt

VFT5436


For sale here is a bamboo rod made by Rolf Baginski of Germany - his "Westwind" model - 8 feet 3/2 made for a six weight line. Medium flamed cane, serial #1255. Wells grip with uplocking german silver reel seat over a stunning amboyna wood spacer. The guide wraps are clear with fine black edging at the ferrules and stripping guide and one black wrap in the middle of each guide wrap. Bright fittings throughout. The rod is in near mint condition and complete with original bag and very fine leather tube. The ferrules are 11/64 and 18/64 and the ferrule fit is Baginski-tight! The rod weighs 5.7 oz and the action is medium fast to fast with a slightly parabolic feel. The cane work and varnish as with all of Rolf's rods is top-notch!

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.
