Sweetgrass Rods - 7'9" 3/2 5wt Bamboo Rod
Sold Out
For sale here is a 7'9" 3/2 5wt bamboo rod from Sweetgrass Rods. Made in 2009, the original owners name is scripted on the rod. Excellent used condition, featuring medium flamed cane, 2x2 nodes and oxidized snake guides with red agate stripping guide. Wraps are caramel brown with red accents at the ferrules. All sections are straight, full length, and serialized (#1270). Ferrules fit perfectly. Bamboo winding check, 6" cork grip (smooth & clean), and nickel silver slide band reel seat over mortised cherry wood spacer. The back of the spacer has a slight dig from the slide band, which could be addressed without too much trouble. Scripted weight is 3 7/8oz, but my scale is closer to 4 1/8oz. Medium fast action, the rod feels light in the hand and is rather responsive. Best with a DT5. Packed in the original bag and tube with Sweetgrass logo affixed.
