Lyle Dickerson 901913 Bamboo Fly Rod 9' 3/2 #9

3682


A Lyle Dickerson 901913 bamboo fly rod, 9', 3-piece, 2-tip, and built for what feels like a #9 line. I believe the rod has been refinished based on the varnish being slightly darker around the original Dickerson script on the butt. Whoever did it did a nice professional job. The rod weighs 6.2 ounces on my scale. Medium fast action, and slightly fuller flexing than a typical Dickerson. "Dickerson 901913 - Tour 1937" is inked on the butt and on another flat the original owner's name. This rod was ordered through Ray Bergman. Excellent refinished condition with good varnish throughout. The rod is nice and straight and the ferrules fit well. Semi-random node pattern. Oxidized step ferrules which retain all of their oxidation. Wrapped in brown with black tipping. Carbide stripper. Full wells grip with a hidden pocket in the heel for the uplocking screwlock reel seat. The rod comes with two fighting butt extensions, a short one a little over an inch long and a longer one approximately six inches in length with a red rubber button at the bottom. The rod packs into a tan cloth bag with a separate bag for the longer fighting butt extension and an aluminum tube with a brass collar and a plastic top.
