David Reid Fall Run Bamboo Fly Rod 11' 3/2 #7/8/9 7'11" The clear plastic covering remainsA David Reid Fall Run bamboo fly rod, 11'6", 3 piece, 2 tip, and built for a #7 8 9 line. This is a spliced joint two handed rod, made to cast modern shooting heads and spey lines. The maker's name, the model, the original owner's name, as well as the serial number "74 0619" are all inked on the shaft. The rod weighs 12. 9 ounces on my scale. Lightly used condition with some cosmetic wear throughout, though no significant issues that I could find.
