Ron Kusse Baby Catskill Fly Rod 6’ 2/2 #1

1744


A Ron Kusse Baby Catskill bamboo fly rod, 6', 2-piece, 2-tip, and built for a #1 line. Serial #9401. The hang tag states the weight at 1 ounce but my scale has it closer to 1.5 ounces. Mint unfished condition. The tips mic out at .058". Blonde cane done in a three up node pattern. The main wraps are light tan with a red edge at the keeper and male ferrule. A snake guide is used for the stripper. The grip is 4" long and shaped to a medium cigar profile. The cap and ring seat is just 3" long over a varnished maple spacer. The cap and ring are polished nickel silver and the cap has "Ron Kusse, Maker" stamped into it. The rod packs into a yellow cloth bag with Ron's hang tag and a brass topped aluminum tube with "Kusse, Maker" stamped into the cap.

Shipping Information
We ship at cost to the buyer and in the majority of cases do so via UPS with full insurance and signature. 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.
Other Terms
Unless otherwise noted, all items come with a 3-day inspection period during which they can be returned to us for a full refund (provided that they are in the same condition in which they left our shop). Return shipping is the responsibility of the buyer. If an item is returned, we will issue a refund within 10 days upon receipt. Refunds will be either administered by providing a check or, when possible, by canceling a credit card purchase.
