Orvis Wes Jordan 8'6 8wt Bamboo Rod with Leather Tube
$ 850
VFT3475
For sale here is a 8 1/2 foot impregnated Orvis "Wes Jordan" bamboo rod. 5 1/8 oz. Marked for a 9 line but like most Orvis rods, a line down from this designation works best. Serial #64692. Made in 1972. The rod is in excellent original condition. Darkly tempered cane with lighter areas around the nodes. Caramel translucent wraps are secure and in excellent condition. Cigar grip lightly soiled and features a thumb indentation as well as an indentation for the palm. Aluminum down-locking reel seat with Walnut spacer looks as if it has been used very little, excellent shape. Ferrule size 15/64 with a nice fit. Medium-fast action. Original leather tube and bag. The original owner's name is on the rod as well as inscribed on the bottom of the butt cap. A very nice example of a lovely Orvis taper.

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.
