A nice EF Payne Model 200 bamboo fly rod, 8', 3-piece, 2-tips, and built for a #5 or #6 line. 4.4 ounces. Mint original condition with the paper and gum strips still on the grip. A&F #123. This is a post Jim Payne rod and purchased directly from Abercrombie & Fitch in the early 1970's by an employee there who never used it. Flamed and oven tempered cane. Wrapped brown with yellow edges and an extra band of purple at the keeper and male ferrules. Agate stripping guide and bronze snake guides. The step ferrules are oxidized and supplied with ferrule plugs. The grip is 5 1/2" long and done in a western profile. "Model 200, 8ft 4 1/2 oz, #123, #5-6 line" lettered on the paper covering the grip. There is a hidden pocket cap for the uplocking screwlock of aluminum. The spacer is varnished spanish cedar. The screwlock nut is stamped "Payne" in a cartouche and "Reg US Pat Off" and stamped on the reverse "123". The rod comes with a grey cloth bag. The hang tag has never been attached and fits in the tube on top of the bag. The original brass top has a grey felt liner. The tube is all original and has the Payne paper label.

There are cheaper options but our experience has been that you get what you pay for and that it's not worth taking risks when shipping what are often one-of-a-kind items. Your shipping estimate will be calculated at checkout and if you have any questions please contact us. Please note the buyers are responsible for any applicable import duties or fees that may levied. Due to the importance of packing items carefully please allow up to two weeks for arrival (depending on how busy we are) though we certainly do our best to get items to you as expeditiously as possible.
