Payne 208 Bamboo Fly Rod 9' 3/3 #5/6 7'10" Restored masterfully by Steve BlakeA nice EF Payne fly rod, 9', 3 piece, 3 tips, and built for what feels to me like a #5 or #6. Likely a model 208 based on the specs and I have listed it as such. 4. 9 ounces. A "Sold by Clapp and Treat, Hartford" rod. Refinished with a replaced grip and reel seat spacer. Medium slow action. All sections are full length with no repair wraps. The wraps are brown with yellow edges with an extra band of purple at the keeper and male ferrules. Agate
