My old friend Bob Morton has a custom rod built by local rod builder Dave Hendricks in Sacramento.

It is built on a Sage 9' #4 line 2 piece 'Light Line' blank and has never been fished.

A new Sage rod of this quality would sell for ~$350 USD.

Bob will take $200 for it.

Bob's phone is 916 988 8157

PS: I had this same rod new once and it is a fantastic fly rod for fishing small flies and light tippets. I caught my 20" plus wild Rainbow Trout on the Henry's Fork with it.

For what it's worth I have the same rod and love it. It's definitely not a rod that can be used in wide applications but for spring creeks and lake fishing it is outstanding. Could be one of my favorites of all time - it's one of the slower graphite rods available. If you got $200 extra blow it's a solid rod.
