I just picked up an Orvis rod and dont have a clue what I have here .
Is it old or not ?
Is it worth much more than I paid for it? (I got it at a thrift store for $2!!!!)
This rod comes in an aluminum tube that looks like its been all over the world. The rod looks like its hardly been out of the tube (I mean this rod looks premo)!
Graphite 7 1/2 ' 2 1/8 oz 6 wt.
There is no printing on the rod itself. The printing is on the butt cap.
The rod case is printed with the rod info also .
Any clues about this rod and its relative value?

(Same thrift store let a Fenwick {Fenglass} go for $2 and a Heddon {I think it was } go for $2. I met the guy who got them and he didnt even fly fish!!!!!!
He said that both rods looked brand new!!!!!
I was told that the heddon was worth several hundred (or what ever it wsa ) was worth several hundred by an aquaintence who is an expert on Bamboo rods( who also missed on the Fen . and the Boo).
Story of my life , one day late and another dollar short.
I do think its cool that I scored a really nice looking orvis for $2!!!!!!!!!!!!!
