varnish is excellent with no marks or nicks

The reel seat features an uplocking slide band with nickel silver threaded barrel and cap

EC Powell Bamboo Fly Rod 9' 3/2 #5 1-Piece I think it adds greatlyAn EC Powell bamboo fly rod, 9', 3 piece, 2 tip, and built for a #5 or #6 weight. Medium to slow action. The rod weighs 4. 9 ounces on my scale. Possibly refinished but I can't tell for certain. The bottom snake on the mid has been re wrapped. The rod is very straight and the ferrule fits are good. Two opposed node pattern and a patent date inked on the rod shaft. Agate stripping guide and black HSS snakes. The wraps are brown. The grip is 6" long and
