This is a Heddon Model 36 Salmon Special bamboo fly rod. This particular rod is somewhat of an enigma. As it is not exactly described in Sinclair's ... moreHeddon book. The rod is 10 1/2' long, 3 piece, 2 tip, with a 6" permanently attached fighting butt. Sinclair's book shows the rod with a 6" detachable fighting butt. Both the rod bag and tube lengths clearly indicate that this length/configuration is factory original. Special order? Non-cataloged variation? I simply don't know. If one of you rod collectors out there knows more, please let me know and I will add it to the listing.Writing on the butt shaft is Heddon in a spiral, plus#36- 10 1/2' 3F- GBG or B. This places it in the Neo-Classic Era of 1939 through 1948. Sinclair's book shows the 10' Salmon Special produced in 1933 through 1943. This would date the rod probably 1939 through 1943. The rod is in very good condition. All sections are full length and straight. It seems to be barely fished. Most of the cellophane is still on both grips, the metal reel seat looks as if a reel was never mounted, and the tip tops still have all their black lacquer. There are several flaws, however. The rod has the typical soft varnish problems, particularly on the butt. The bottom snake on the mid has been re-wrapped in a lighter color silk. The agate stripper on the butt is missing one trim wrap. Finally, the male ferrule on the mid appears to have a split. The rod comes in the original bag and tube. The tube has a partial label and a Heddon stamped cap. Insured shipping is $20.00.

For sale is my new(purchased several yrs ago but never used or cast) custom made LC(Lew) Parks 7.5 ft 5 wgt 2 pc 2 tip bamboo fly rod. I am selling off ... moreseveral rods for cash to feed one of my other hobbies. This rod is absolutely beautiful-especially the wood insert in the handle. The hollow built rod has a Dickerson 7613 taper. I purchased it directly from Lew. He also sells on Ebay but orders direct from him for specific rods are usually $100 to $200 more than they go on Ebay.On his site-new 2 pc rods list for $900. Recent rods of his have gone for $660 to $700 and up on Ebay. Why wait if you are interested in this configuration and weight? Will send my original receipt to the buyer with the rod. As most of you know-Lew is one of the countries premier bamboo rod makers. Located in Saginaw.MI his rods are much sought after and a good investment.The pics tell the whole story. I have also included a rod tube sock. Questions are welcomed. I will ship only to continental US. NO shipment to Hawaii.Alaska, or international. If shipping is less than stated, I will refund the difference via PayPal. And as you may know-it's hard to find an affordable bamboo rod with 2 tips-This is a relist as previous listing did not meet my reserve. I have listed it again with no reserve. This is your last chance to have a LC Parks at far less than retail.

Here is a rod you do not see very often. Arguably Heddon's finest taper in its 2nd highest grade. Essentially never seen on the secondary market and ... morenever in this condition. I sold a rare Heddon 8' 1000 Deluxe Featherweight recently and this rod is just as nice and in an even more desirable taper. This is a near mint all orignal 7'6" Heddon 50 Deluxe Featherweight rod. Bag and tube are all orignal with nearly all of the tube label remaining and a slight dent on the tube cap. When I bought the rod it was unfished. But I had to take it out on the Roaring Fork near my home. I fished it with a 4DT Cortland Peach and it was a gem. An unbelievable 4wt that fished as good as its reputation. Everything about this rod is top notch. I'll let the pictures do the talking for this one.

Exact item shown. This is a bamboo fly rod that assembles in 3 pieces. There are two of the thin end pieces. I weighed the three pieces that make a complete ... morerod(handle piece. Middle piece, end piece) on my postal scale, it weighs 5.2 ounces. Each piece is 35 inches long. Near the handle there are two rubber stamps on the rod, one says"Granger Victory" the other says"Wright& McGill" The metal reel holder part of the handle says"Made by Wright& McGill Rod Co Denver Colo USA" it also has two patent dates- Pat Apr 12 1938" and"Pat No 2114107. The aluminum tube says"CHAMIPON" MFD by CAL-AIR Products Los Angles" Inside the screw on cover there is stamped" CAL-AIR Products Co Los Angles" This rod is from the estate of a relative who died a long time ago. It has sat unused for decades. I don't know anything about fly fishing. I have tried to describe the rod carefully, I see no damage, no wear, no stains, etc. There is some oxidation on the silver metal, not rust, and there is some darkening of the cork handle from holding it, othewise to me it looks absolutely like new. Please see the photos. I found this discussion of the Grainger rods that helps date this rod: http:books.google.com/books?id=zY8vsd9Q_BUC&pg=PA200&lpg=PA200&dq=%22grainger++victory%22+rod&source=bl&ots=JgkI4vvVa2&sig=8y5_FuhEym6_gOBFVUvAPbWeWKw&hl=en&sa=X&ei=tTHKUPXdPKLhiAKKmIDACA&ved=0CGYQ6AEwBw#v=onepage&q=%22grainger%20%20victory%22%20rod&f=false From the page referenced above. If I understand it right, this rod would date from about 1946-1951 because of the legend on the handle and the rubber stamp on the rod base. The thread wrap that holds the line loops to the rod are red/black if that helps, please see photos. I imagine that this rod must have a model number something like 8352 from what I've read- that's a guess. I don't have a specific marking on the rod to say that, but it appears that the model numbers are l

VTG WRIGHT & McGILL GRANGER 8642 Bamboo Fly Rod 8 1/2' STREAM & LAKE
The Granger 8642's have got to be the most iconic western taper bamboo fly rod in history. I like them because they are very versatile and can cast in all situations including when the winds pick up and will fish a 5 or a 6. My story this past summer included my first outing with an 8642 Special and was 3 days on the B_r River in Montana. We fished the upper head waters for up to 16" Cutts and the Special was a ball. Then we fished lower. Larger waters for nice sized, hard fightin' bows. I could not believe that I was making 60' casts with a hopper in the wind. Later in the day I switched over to a nymph rig and was amazed at how well it could mend the line. I even fished streamers with the fear of nicking the rod but it performed flawlessly. Now I don't know about you, but that is the type of waters that I normally fish, ... moremuch more than the dainty little creeks. I am having a hard time fishing with graphite again! This rod is very nice. But has a couple of minor issues. One guide on the mid has been re-wrapped with the correct scarlet red. It was done nicely and other than it looking slightly newer than the rest of the wraps, you can hardly tell. One tip had a splinter on the top 6" and has been wrapped in clear. It is even hard to tell in the pics and should fish like the other tip, which is excellent. The finish on the rod is near flawless and shines like new. The pics show the condition of the grip and seat. Ferrules have a nice fit. Sock is original but the tube is a few inches longer than the rod. Shipping is $13.50 to the lower 48 On Dec-14-12 at 14:00:49 PST. Seller added the following information: International shipping is incorrect. To ship a package overseas of this size with insurance will cost around $50+ or- Sometimes Ebay fills in the blanks for you and I overlooked this one. They will not let me change it.

Classic 7' Bamboo Fly Rod by Charles Grove, Maker 2/2 With Bag And Aluminum Tube
I have not been able to find out anything about Charles Grove. The maker. This 7 foot, 2 piece, 2 tip rod is beautifully designed and executed. The cork cigar grip tapers to a cork reel seat with two sliding rings. The cork has no chips or gouges. Both tip sections are 3/4" longer than the butt section, looks like the rod may have been built that way. All sections are essentially straight. The ferrules are"popping" tight. The female ferrule on the butt has a soldered ring welt. The stripper guide has an artificial agate liner. The snake guides are pristine, with transparent wraps. The rod is designed to cast a 4 weight line. I have not put a line on it but in flexing it feels like a good dry fly rod. This rod is in excellent condition. It comes with a cloth bag in a good quality aluminum tube.

Guides and ferrules are all solid and tight. I can see no noticeable sets. The rod sock shows no signs of use either. It is clean with no water spots, mildew or dirt stains. I believe this rod was used very little throughout its life. I purchased the rod at a garage sale from a man that found it in the back of a cabin closet 20 years earlier during some ... moreconstruction. It was given to him, and he said he might have used it a few times. I am not a bamboo fly rod expert, but I’ve read that a rod will over time develop casting checks at the ferrules, and I can see no sign of these checks anywhere in the varnish.

Professional ID and Valuation Service - Montague Fishing Rod - Bamboo, Fly, Pole
Normal 0 false false false MicrosoftInternetExplorer4 Professional ID and Valuation Service This is NOT an Appraisal this service is limited to identifying the model. Age and value from The Monty Man for your Montague Fly Rod. Casting Rod or Bait Rod Whether it’s made of bamboo. Fiberglass, metal or wood You’ll find out: What you have. What it’s worth in today’s market. When it was built(approximately) Where it stacks up in the Montague line. Brief history of Montague Rod& Reel Company Do you own a Montague fishing rod. Or one you suspect is a Montague. But you want to know more about it? I CAN HELP! The problem is that most Montague rods cannot be identified by the average collector. And collecting is all about identification. Any antique that cannot be identified, has very little collectable value. In fact. Many early Montague rods(especially ... morefrom the Varney era) are mistaken for rods made by famous makers like Leonard, Edwards, Thomas, Payne, Orvis, and Landman. Who am I? I'm commonly called the Monty Man by avid collectors of vintage tackle. In addition to my addiction to vintage fly rods and reels. I'm an avid fisherman, fishing mostly with vintage bamboo rods and vintage reels. I spend an average of over 60 days a year on the water, chasing fish. So far this season(2012) I've caught and released over 450 fish on bamboo rods and vintage reels. All my trout fishing is done with vintage fly gear, but I'm not a fly fishing snob.

H L Leonard Bamboo Fly Rod Model 36
Up for sale is a H L Leonard Model 36 7 1/2' 3/2. All the sections are full length. Straight and the furrels are tight. Rod comes with bag and original tube as seen in pictures. The rod has been refinished and is smooth with no cracks on the guide wraps. The rod is honey colored with red wraps and a honey wood colored reel seat. I fished both tips a handful of times lightly casting dries on Silver Creek in Idaho and surrounding waters, it fished great as a 3 weight for me. The reason I'm selling is just that, I don't use this enough and would prefer to invest in some photography gear. The one flaw is the rod has a 1/2' clear wrap on one of the two tips. I bought the rod this way and have fished it with no noticeable affects. This flaw can be seen in the photos located by the piece of black paper seen in the photos. I bought ... morethis rod quite a few years ago from Ron's Rods and Reels. If you have questions don't hesitate. Thanks for looking On Dec-14-12 at 16:14:28 PST. Seller added the following information: Update: Pictures Added I have added a few more pictures. One potential bidder asked about the clear wrap on the tip. He asked if it was a de-lamination? The tip has a loss of some bamboo on one of the flats. I tried to take a picture to show it as the wrap itself bends slightly because of the missing bamboo material.

Phillipson Paragon fly rod 8 1/2' - 5 bamboo 3 section very nice original cond.
Today I purchased this Phillipson Paragon fly rod at an estate sale. I don't know really anything about it other than I have read that they fish very well. And I know they were made in the fifties. This is a 3 section 8 1/2' 5 HDH. It also has what looks like a small b with an 8 in front of the length designation. It is in very good overall condition for the age, and does not appear to have any real damage or problems other than very minor scuffs and scratches. It was obviously owned by someone who liked to use it, and it has been well used, but probably has a lot of life left in it. The ferrules seem tight, all the guides are still tightly wrapped, and I do not see any cracks or repairs. I can send better pics too if any one is interested in seeing it in a close up shot with better light. Thanks for looking!

The Stripping Guides and been replaced with the Correct Size Etna Guide. George Reid/ Bill Young'Collaboration Built. As it was customarily done by Orvis and other Well Known Rod Makers. The Collaborative build became the industry standard in that fly rods could be built faster in which to meet large demands while allowing Two Sets of Very Trained Eyes Judge the Work to be released to a Very Fussy Clientele. On September 11. 1967 Master Rod Builders George Reid and Bill Young completed the rod now offered. Looking very much like it did some 45 plus years ago, the Superlight has been ... morethe victim of a car window. Originally 6' 2 Piece Ultra Light for those of us that like to go'Light lining' and fish anywhere from 1 1/2 Pound Test up to 3 1/2 pound test. In Most Cases, Broken Tip Rods are pretty much worthless and don't fish properly. The Fact that this started out as a 6 Foot Superlight and has is no approximately 5' 6" Vs 6' has actually only taken the rod to the next level of Ultra Light Rods. I took it out and put it up against my Mint Superlight with 4 Pound Test, Both Rods using an Orvis 50A with Daiwa Steez 4 pound test line. The Rod offered Felt Very Much Like. When you loose the tip on a Heavy or Heavier Rod well it's pretty much shot, but when you loose the tip on a Whippy Super Ultra Light, you end up with basically a Light Weight better suited for lines between 3 1/2 and 6 Weight. The Rod Cast without any weird feelings or action and while tossing lures to some of our Big Bass on the South West side of the lake where the Big Bass tend to back up into their holes and Waite for what ever the next Qualified Meal might be, I had no problem having them take my Tied Crayfish.

Vintage E C Powell Split Bamboo B 9 Fly Rod MINT cond. circa 1945 w/ 3 Tips Case
AT AUCTION. NO RESERVE: This is a one-of-a-kind E. C. Powell hand-built split bamboo fly rod in almost-new condition. This would be the crown jewel in any collection. First, the basic description, according to the owner: This fly rod was built around 1945 by E. C. Powell for my great uncle, Joe McMullen, who fished with Mr. Powell. I can guarantee that it was built by Mr. Powell himself. As a kid, I fished with"Uncle Joe" and E. C. Powell's son, Clyde Powell, at the Sizemore Ranch near Meeker, Colorado. Uncle Joe left this rod to me, and it's been put away since then. The rod itself is a model B-9, 9 1/2 footer and would have been used primarily for steelhead, Patent Number 9132986. The kit is complete and includes three tips-another distinguishing feature of this particular rod-and the original cloth bag, and the original ... morealuminum case. I have been in contact with the E. C. Powell Fly Fishers Club regarding this particular rod, and my asking price is based on research and correspondence with the Club. Two of the tips are 47 1/2 inches long; the third is 57 1/2 inches long. The two 47 1/2 inch tips are of two different thicknesses. Engraved in the bottom of the reel seat is 4 1/2. Perhaps the line weight used by Mr. McMullen. A rod like this does not come up for sale very often. In any condition. This rod is pristine. There are no nicks or marks on the reel seat, the cork handle looks new, the wraps are all tight and solid, the varnish is clear and smooth, and all the parts you could ask for are there.

Vintage Bamboo Fly Rod - Nickle Silver Hardware, Agate tip tops
Decided to let go of another rod. It is a vintage rod with no makers marking other than the signature wrap. Have been told that it could be an early high end Montague from the 1920s. But that's just an opinion. I haven't fished this rod or cast it so don't know the line weight, but would guess it to be a 4 or 5wt. I have the original bag and tube, but the tube is missing the cap. I'm pretty sure the finish has been redone by a previous owner. It's a three piece 9 1/2' all the sections are full length. Bamboo has the mottled flamed appearance. The two tips are wrapped differently photo 11 shows it best. one tip has a wider wrap of green& red which I assume one is for wet fly and the other is for dry fly. The different wrapping lets you know which tip your using. The tube has Edwards written on it maybe a previous ... moreowner. If anyone recognizes the signature wrap I have always wondered who made it. Nice rod for your collection or to use. If you would like more pictures. Or have any questions email me. I will only ship inside of the continental united states.The auction is PAYPAL ONLY. Excluding holidays and weekends item normally ships the day following payment. I would like to get paid right away since I'm usually selling something so I can get something different that I saw on ebay. So I would expect that 4 days should be plenty of time to pay up.

Bamboo Ferrule Fly rod
Lightly used Bamboo ferruled Fly rod. I used this a couple times in the fall and in the winter months for steel head coming off lake huron into the tribs. Great rod no flaws. No glue marks no problems. I prefer making these now then ever. Last year and this year I have developed a proper taper for these rods so alot of time care and math went in to this. Because with these Bamboo ferrules its hard to just pluck an existing taper, say an old orvis or payne taper and make it into a Bamboo ferruled rod, action was intended for rods with a metal ferrule. Which ofcourse has a downside itself mainly it created a dead spot/ stiff spot above and below the metal ferrule thats where they break usually. But with the bamboo ferrules(B.F's) there is no dead spot, no metal/ transfer of energy between materials, So it is in all since the B.F rods act ... morein the same action as a one piece rod. with the great advantage of breaking down rather then trying to travel with a 6 or 7 foot one piece rod. But any how. With out giving away my tapers, i do have all other spec's for the rod, so here it is: 100% hand milled not by a machine, Hollow built construction. Blonde rod. The B.F's are hand milled out from the swells from the last station by hand( razorblade) to fit exact, no looseness of failier when fishing, I also pre waxed them. they fight very tight. On my taper there is a large increase of slope in the butt section with additional huge swells above the grip, for extra power and flashiness. Thread work is all 100% silk and in red with black frames, aditional the B.F's are clear wraps with a clockwise twist underneath the clear thread. i do this now to all my rods signature wise, and also because after several with the B.f's the same colour as the thread work I fount its just too much colour/ and more distracting as a solid colour) So with the clear its more natural and asteticly pleasing that does not distract too much. also on this there are intermediat wrapps between the guides as well. Its stagered 3x3 for nod
