Mike Montagne R-Quad Bamboo Fly Rod 8' 2/2 #6

Mike Montagne R-Quad Bamboo Fly Rod 8' 2/2 #6A very rare Mike Montagne R Quad bamboo fly rod, 8', 2 piece, 2 tip, and built for what feels to me like a #6 (no line weight is listed on the rod, but this is my guess, and I have listed it as such). I suspect that some might prefer it with a #7 as well. This is one of Mike's rectangular quad designs where the dimensional profile is larger in one dimension than the other. The rod has a fast, powerful action. Inked on the butt is Mike's signature
