You are bidding on an absolutely gorgeous Granger (Wright & McGill) "Victory" split Bamboo Rod, with Rod Bag. Wow, you sure don’t come across these everyday, especially in such amazing condition as this one. As in all my auctions, I will attempt to explain with both words and detailed pictures, the full detail of this rod assembly.
