A Paul Young Midge bamboo fly rod, 6'3", 2-piece, 2-tip, built for a #4 line. Serial #3974. Semi parabolic full flexing action. Fair used condition. The principal issues with the rod are that there are some untreated hook digs below the lowest guide on the wrap flat of the butt section. Also, the snake guides and tip tops are corroded. The cane is flamed and the node pattern is two opposed. The wraps are copper and the varnish is good. No stripper, but a snake guide instead. The rod may have been re-done by Bob Summers, but I can't say for sure. The ferrules are black anodized aluminum stepdown style. The grip is 4 1/2" long shaped to a small blunt cigar. The all-cork reel seat adds another 3 1/2" and is flatted for the reel foot and utilizes two black anodized rings. A cork flare at the base of the seat retains the slide rings. The rod bag is original and a copper colored silk-like material. All-aluminum rod tube with a gold anodized collar.
