Ted Simroe Bamboo fly rod 8' 6-7wt, 3pc, 2 tips Used, but lovingly. Alas, yall have caught me with too many toys again, and the need to sell some to get new toys. Besides, guides are getting irritated when I show up with four bamboo rods each trip.

This is a medium fast action rod with plenty of backbone to horse big fish, as the photos attest. The fellow I got it from used it for bass. I have fished it on East TN tailwaters for BIG trout with indicator rigs, which it handles with aplomb. I have fished this rod with 6WF and 7WF lines with equal effectiveness. Although the rod works best for me with a WF6F. The rod is basically straight. The ferrules fit snugly and separate with a satisfying pop. The varnish, as on all of Teds rods, is pristine. With one exception, all of the wraps are excellent. The one exception is the ferrule wrap on one tip which I suspect got dry and cracked off, probably from banging around in the drift boat. The other tip shows no signs of water having seeped through the wraps. Bright nickel silver ferrules and stainless guides. Wraps clear brown tipped black. The other thing to note is the reel seat insert, which has a blemish from a reel seat scratching it, and the end of the reversed half wells grip, which is slightly damaged at the point of the uplocking sleeve. If I recall Teds numbering correctly, this rod was the 38th rod he built in 2007 and is serial number 682, which is marked on all sections. The original rod bag is in good shape, as is the powder-coated aluminum tube with brass cap.

Cant think of anything else. Give me a holler if you have questions. Christmas blessings to you all. The item "Ted Simroe Bamboo fly rod 8' 6-7wt, 3pc, 2 tips Used, but lovingly.
