FE Thomas Special Bamboo Fly Rod 9' 3/2 #8/9 9' The owner came by thisAn FE Thomas Special bamboo fly rod, 9', 3 piece, 2 tip (one tip is short 4"). Serial #6154. 6. 1 ounces. Medium fast action for what feels to me like a #8 or #9. Used and but for the short tip it is in pretty decent condition. The varnish is hard with a few chips missing here and there. There are some small cosmetic casting cracks at the ferrules. The ferrule fits are good and the rod could use a minor straighten. The wraps are brown with a red edge
