Tom Morgan Rodsmith’s Bamboo Fly Rod 7'6" 2/2 #5 10 Weight this is one of theA Tom Morgan Rodsmiths bamboo fly rod, 7'6", 2 piece, 2 tip and built for a #5 line. Serial #37 of 200. The rod weighs 3. 9 ounces on my scale. Excellent lightly used condition. The grip has a moderate amount of hand soiling which at first glance would suggest that the rod has been well used, but the rest of the rod is in great shape with very few signs of wear. My suspicion is moderately used but very carefully. Crisp dry fly action, very pleasing.
