Payne 101 Fly Rod 7'6 2/2 #5

The action is on the faster side of medium. A 1950s-1960s era rod in near mint condition. This beautiful rod looks to me to have been cast 1-2 dozen times. A bit of cracking to the female ferrule wrap, some micro brassing to the inner guides, and some minute hand soiling to the grip is the only evidence of use.
