I have two brand new from England 9' 5 pc fly rods in tubes with socks. One is labeled 6/7 and one is labeled 7/9. Should make good bass rods. The rod sections are 22 13/165 long or call it 3/4 I think. And the rod tubes are 25' total length closed. Beautiful deep maroon or garnet color? I actually bought them from a dealer in England and had them shipped here. I will be selling them soon. So this is just an fyi. Oh....the thing is I have not tested them but the seem to be very fast stiff rods to me. Jim
