8 1/2 ft Montague Redwing 3/2 Split Fly Rod Bamboo Ex !
Bidding has ended |
Tube says Montague Redwing 8 1/2 ft, Montague Redwing, medium trout, 3 piece, 2 tip, Bamboo Fly Rod.
This rod was Montague's second from the top in their line of fly rods, right behind the Montague Manitou..
It features their top of the line Scrulock reel seat with a red Tenite spacer,
Has nickel silver sliding band and butt cap with finely threaded aluminum hardware.
It comes with their top of the line Water proof Nickel Silver ferrules.
It also has a nice swelled butt that makes for a very nice, powerful incontrol feeling when Casting.
The rod is wrapped with bright red silk tipped gold. I think the cosmetics and craftsmanship on this rod, make it one of the Nicest Quality Looking rods of it's day.
The over all condition of this rod is Very Good + To Ex- to Ex Condition on the Majority of this Beautiful Rod.
Word Redwing on the Decal is Totally Complete
Letter " M " on the name Montague is Missing
Top Fin on the Trout is Missing.
The Rest of the Decal is Complete
Total Decal Complete is at least 95 %
The decal that says "Genuine Tonkin" is about 40% gone ( Mostly on the top side of the Lettering.
The ferrules are all tight
The varnish is in very nice ( Ex Condition) shape on the mid section and both tips.
Varnish on the bottom hand section has some pelling but overall Pretty Good Overall.
All sections are full length and appear to have never been broken or repaired and are Totally Straight with no bends or Cracks that i Can See.
The wraps and tipping are in Excellent Shape and pleasantly Preserved
The rod tube is in very nice shape but it has some slight wear marks and scratches & Some masking tape that can be Removed.
The Sock is in Excellent shape & Very Clean.
This rod has been Very well taken care Of and Personally would be a great Conversation Piece to share with Others.
Described everything i could think of, if ive missed something please feel free to contact me with any Questions or Answers.
If you live near or around Colorado Springs and would like to pick this rod up
Feel free to contact me personally and possibly we can arrange a Pick up Place ( Cash Only )
Thank you and Good Luck everyone !
