B.D. Morrow Granger 7633 7'6 3/2 4wt Bamboo Rod

B.D. Morrow Granger 7633 7'6 3/2 4wt Bamboo RodIn the world of bamboo fly rods, the Granger tapers need no introduction. This is the 7633 from the Goodwin Granger era which I find to be a tad bit slower than the Wright McGill taper. It throws a sexy 4 wt. loop with a dry fly. I kept the coke bottle grip and winding check similar to the original rod. Wrapped in antique gold and tipped in scarlet, adorned with an exceptional looking agate stripping guide to match This one has deeply blued N S

The spigot/sleeve hybrid ferrules fit together nice and tight as they should with a 1/4" gap to allow for wear over time
