Tom Morgan Graphite Fly Rod 9' 4/1 #6

Tom Morgan Graphite Fly Rod 9' 4/1 #6A nice Tom Morgan Rodsmiths graphite fly rod, 9', 4 piece, 1 tip, and built for a #6 line. This rod was built by TMR's new owners and is in near mint condition, with just a hint of hand soiling indicating that it's been used a few times. I could find no other meaningful signs of use. The maker name and rod specs are inked on the butt, along with the serial number 21 6 13. Dark blank wrapped in a dark burgundy with gold tipping at the front cork check,

Random node spacing in flamed cane

making it roughly equivalent to a Vom Hofe Perfection size 1 (diameter-wise) with a spool that is less dished than the Vom Hofe reels

Good condition with original leather maker-marked sheath

This series was ironically cheaper than the more well-known Signature Series with most of the savings made in the matte finish and simplified drag knob

but this reel is very clean throughout
