    Description

    Ron Kusse vintage bamboo fly rod in Excellent condition. Specifications: 7' 0". 3.0 oz.  Two-piece rod with extra tip. Takes 4 weight line.  A real beauty of a hand-crafted rod by an under-recognized craftsman: Ron Kusse. This is a Special Series rod.  It comes with sock & metal case.  I inherited this rod from my uncle who took loving care of all his tackle.  He won this rod at a fund raiser for the Theodore Gordon Flyfishers Association and rarely, if ever, used it.  Very good-to-excellent condition with some signs of wear on the metal cap on butt section (see photo).  Hoping to find a good home for it with another fly fisher who will appreciate it.
