EC Powell Bamboo Rod 9'6" 3/1 #6
$ 750
657
An EC Powell semi-hollow fly rod, 9'6", 3-piece, 1-tip, built for what feels to me like a #6 line. Weighs 5.7 ounces on my scale. 2-opposed node construction with honey colored cane. Patent number #1932986 inked on the butt section along with the original owner's name. Darker, gold-colored wraps with standard single intermediate wraps throughout, and the wrap just above the grip having a lighter gold and black tipping. Medium, full-flexing action. Polished bright ferrules. The tip has a slight downstream set but the butt and mid are nice and straight. This rod likely had delamination issues, evidenced by the 4 1/2" clear wrap along the butt, and a longer almost 15" clear wrap along the middle portion of the mid. It appears to have been refinished after the clear wraps were added. Standard Powell-style grip with the bakelite reel seat spacer and uplocking aluminum hardware with the EC Powell stamp on it. Comes in a SF-era Winston rod bag and aluminum tube (the cap is missing and a temporary plastic tube cap has been added). A nice fisher here for folks who want a long, light single-hander for large trout or light steelhead.

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.
