The contents rival any catalog I've ever seen

The pedestal is still in the original unopened packaging

A nice Billy Pate Tarpon model by the Tibor reel corporation

A 1950's era build with finial ferrule plugs

just the faintest hint of soiling to the western style grip

RK Bolt Bamboo Fly Rod 8'2" 2/2 #4 11'3" The contents rival any catalogA nice RK Bolt bamboo fly rod, 8'2", 2 piece, 2 tip, and built for what feels to me like a #4 line. This is one of Robert's recently developed Guide models. Serial #2206. The rod weighs 4. 1 ounces on my scale. Pleasant medium full flexing action. The rod appears to be mint or perhaps lawn cast only at most. I could find no meaningful signs of use. The rod is nice and straight. Medium wheatstraw colored cane done in a two opposed node configuration.
