HL Leonard 66L Bamboo Fly Rod 8' 2/2 #5

3842


A scarce H.L. Leonard 66L bamboo fly rod, 8', 2-piece, 2-tip, and built for what feels like a #5 line. 4 ounces. Serial #477. Used condition, with some ridging to the grip from cleaning. The ferrule fits are serviceable but not quite factory. There is a wee bit of downward set in the tips. Blond cane done in a three-up node pattern. Brush-coated varnish. Red/maroon wraps. Carbide stripper and black snake guides. The step ferrules are polished bright. The action is on the slower side. The medium cigar grip is 6" long. The reel seat wood is varnished butternut with an aluminum downlock square thread screw lock, and a nickel silver pocket cap with the stamp "H.L.L., H.L. Leonard Rod Co., Makers." The poplin bag has a stiffener. The aluminum tube has brass top, collar, and bottom but no Leonard data sticker.

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.
Other Terms
Unless otherwise noted, all items come with a 3-day inspection period during which they can be returned to us for a full refund (provided that they are in the same condition in which they left our shop). Return shipping is the responsibility of the buyer. If an item is returned, we will issue a refund within 10 days upon receipt. Refunds will be either administered by providing a check or, when possible, by canceling a credit card purchase.
