    Default 3 rods for sale

    I have for sale a rebuilt bamboo - South Bend 2 pc 7'6 5/6 wt and a Sage XP 590 wrapped by me. Nice rods, just too heavy for my bad houlder.

    The XP: $350 shipped to Conus



    The SB: $125 shipped to Conus - the picture looks like the tip might have a set in it, but it doesn't - nice and straight.



    The Fitch: $350 shipped to Conus - SOLD





    Sorry 'bout pictures, haven't quite got the technique down pat.

    It was thought to be a 59 by the seller, but after talking to the classic forum folks, they said it was probably a 26, which was a 59 without the cosmetics. So the action should be a 59 but I re-did the costmetics, reel seat, grip, and wrapped in classic twist black and red.

    These rods are all in great condition, the Sage has only been fished twice and the Fitch once. Your chance to get into bamboo with the South Bend at a very reasonable price. All have nickel silver reel seats and the Fitch is wrapped in orange and black classic twist, the SB in red/black and the XP in the factory color of Goldenrod with gold trim wraps.

    If I hadn't shot my wad last month on a couple bamboo rod purchases I'd be all over that South Bend. As herefishy said this is a great opportunity to get a good, vintage bamboo rod for a heck of a price. South Bend bamboo rods have a good reputation. I love my 323.
