    Vintage Shakespeare Wonderod Fly Fishing Rod FY-A120-ECK 8'6"
    This is a two piece vintage Shakespeare Wonderod fly fishing rod. Model FY-A-120-ECK. Rod weighs 4.4 oz. and will handle a 6-7 weight fly line. Rod dates to January 1968. Standard Taper design for all purpose use. Rod has a 4" black and silver sliding hood ring locking fly reel seat, a 6 1/4" specie cork grip, and an aluminum winding check. Stainless steel hookeeper is an addition to the rod. Stainless steel stripper guide, five stainless steel snake guides, and a stainless tip top (new/old stock). The resin in the blade (originally white) has yellowed with age. The rod is finished with red nylon guide wraps extended. Rolled aluminum ferrules display scratches and plating loss (chromed brass) but fit nicely. Tip has a flat area of the fiberglass from the last snake guide to the tip top but no break. Rod is finished in vintage Gudebrod rod varnish. Comes with a single compartment clear plastic sleeve.
    Will ship in a heavy cardboard tube well protected and insured.
