    Default 8'0" Custom Trout Smith Brookie LT Fiberglass Rod, 3wt

    8'0" Trout Smiths Brookie LT (Custom) Fiberglass. 3 piece, 3wt line, 3.70 oz. Amber E-glass blank.
    Uplocking blue-gray anodized aluminum seat with spalted cherry spacer.
    SIC stripper, TiGrey lite wire snake guides. Bronze silk wraps tipped red with gold accents.
    Custom bag with stiffener, no tube.

    I would say the action is on the slow side of medium. The tip and mid are flexible and the butt section is moderately stiff.

    Lawn cast only.

    $220 shipped to CONUS. **SOLD**

    If you'd like a blue coated aluminum tube included, add $35.

    That is a sweet little dry fly small stream fly rod that would make most happy.

    Looks like it is from the Struble reel seat manufacturer's website.

    Hi Bill:

    Just to clear: I built this from a blank I bought directly from Shane last year.

    The reel seat hardware is by Joel Lemke, the spacer is custom turned and finished. The hardware is similar to the old U-1/D-1 Strubles that aren't available any more.
