Description
A nice Thomas and Thomas Midge model bamboo fly rod, 6’0″, 2-piece, 2-tip, and built for a 4wt line. Serial #2403 the rod was custom made in 1975. The butt section has the original owner’s name and date inked on it by T&T but can be removed if desired. The rod is used but in very overall good condition. One tip section has a repair wrap near the tip top. The repair was performed at the shop by T&T. Fine tipped with a featured elegant butt swell this is one of the faster rods in the T&T lineup. A very rare T&T model. The rod weighs 2.5 ounces. Tan colored oven tempered cane done in a three up node pattern. Superb varnish. Light tan color wraps with brown tipping accents.
Carbide stripper and black stainless snake guides. Oxidized swiss style ferrules with a collar on the males. The ferrule fits are excellent and the rod is straight. The diminutive cigar style grip is 5″ long. The reel seat is a down locking cap and ring style with a varnished mortised walnut spacer. The rod packs into a tan cloth bag. The polished aluminum tube has a brass collar and top. A very rare T&T indeed!
