Orvis Wes Jordan Bamboo Fly Rod 7'6" 2/1 #6

Orvis Wes Jordan Bamboo Fly Rod 7'6" 2/1 #6An Orvis "Wes Jordan" model bamboo fly rod, 7'6", 2 piece, 1 tip, and built for a #6 line. Serial #71190 built in 1976. Good used condition with some minor grip soiling, a few scratches to the reel seat, and some oxidation loss to the ferrules, but nothing outside of the normal cosmetic wear you'd see from use. Listed as 3 7 8 ounces on the shaft and that's what it weighs on my scale. The rod is straight and the ferrule fits are good. The original
