EC Powell Fly Rod 9' 3/2 #6

EC Powell Fly Rod 9' 3/2 #6An EC Powell semi hollow built fly rod, 9', 3 Piece, 2 tip, built for what feels to me like a #6 line. Weighs 4. 6 ounces on my scale. Patent date lettered on the butt shaft. 2 opposed node construction with honey colored cane. Good varnish overall.
