A Marc Aroner Hunt Pattern bamboo fly rod, 7', 3-piece, 2-tip, and built for a #4 line. 3.5 ounces. Near mint condition. Very light hand soiling, no casting or cracks at the ferrules and a faint hint of brassing to the inner snake guides are the only signs of wear. Flawless varnish. The rod dates to the late 1990’s. Three up node pattern with small hand pressed nodes. The main wraps are olive with dark maroon edges and an extra edge of orange at the keeper wrap. Black oxidized stripper and black snake guides. The ferrules are truncated swiss style with a collar on the male and a slant knurl and two trim marks. All of the hardware is oxidized jet black and shows no sign of brassing. Brass ferrule plugs. 5" long medium cigar grip. The slide band seat sports a mottled, varnished, and stained bird’s eye maple spacer (super high density eyes – I have not found bird’s eye this good in 40 years!). The oxidized butt cap has no roller die stamp. The owner’s name is inscribed on the rod as well as the leather rod tube. The rod bag is tan poplin.
