Granger Aristocrat 8642 Bamboo Fly Rod, 8.5'. 5 wt.
This very nice Goodwin Granger rod is 3/2 and weighs 5.3 oz. One tip is ¾ short and one of the tips has a scarf repair by Scott Whitman, but for the life of me I can’t tell which one (a tribute to Scott’s work). The varnish is good with a few dings and the ferrules pop. The tips have slight sets. Comes with the original tube and bag. If you have to pick one all-around trout rod, this would be it.
