NOTE: My Battenkill is not the Dark color.
Nice Goddess. Isn't the 101 a 7' 6" rod?
yes it is. Thanks for catching that.
Another Heddon.....Model 14 Thorobred... 8' 2F 3/2 the smoothest 5 1/2 line weight rod I have ever handled...SA GPX5 was made for this rod!

Paul young Martha Marie. best hex rod ever
Granger 8642
I'm half way through building a Young para 15 then it's on to a Payne 98 or a short Granger taper.
Toss up between my Payne 98, and my 7' 4wt Kusse quad.
I own the boo and I do love them, but I will admit, they don't get wet too often. The H2 is that nice.

Bobby,
I'l try to put some pictures up later. I have an Orvis Battenkill 5 wt that was built in 1952 but I find myself going to a Bob Nunley 4 wt and an unknown 4 wt that is just a pleasure to cast when I'm throwing bamboo. But if truth be known, it's hard to get away from my Winston WT 8.5' 5 wt.
Best,
Steve
