Bob Summers Commemorative Trout Unlimited 50th Anniversary Rod. Engraved by master gunsmith David Riccardo. Model 75. See the Forum Announcements Board posting.

I pursue trout and flyfishing gear strictly as a hobby. Consequently, from time to time my tackle needs and desires change, and I will occasionally post items for sale or wanted below. I try to describe items for sale accurately and with a discerning eye, however my listings, including pricing, are subject to human error, so no warranties are implied or expressed and the content of my listings is subject to change without notice. And, therefore, all items for sale are subject to the basic rules of the Classic Fly Rod Forum found here, and I expect the same for purchases that I make. All prices listed include PayPal AND shipping costs in the continental United States for USPS Priority + insurance + delivery confirmation. All other shipping arrangements are extra (more for HI, AK, overseas, FedEx, UPS, etc.). However, if you decide to return an item, you must pay to return it and your refund will be less any shipping or transaction fees incurred in getting the item to you in the first place. I offer a small discount if you pay with cash or check, although the latter will require clearance prior to shipping. I strongly prefer to send and receive tackle by United States Postal Service. Once I have confirmed a sale or purchase, I will provide payment and shipping details. With questions, comments, or offers, I can be reached by private message through this board, or at com.gmail@splitcane (reverse).

Cheers!
