Paul Young Ace Fly Rod 8' 2/1 #6

Paul Young Ace Fly Rod 8' 2/1 #6A Paul Young "Ace" model bamboo fly rod, 8', 2 piece, 1 tip, built for what feels to me like a #6 line. 4. 9 ounces. Used but good condition. Semi full flexing action. The rod could use a little bit of straightening to put it in top condition. The cane is lightly flamed and done in a two opposed node pattern in the butt and a random node pattern in the tip. Wrapped red or garnet with a perfection stripper and high arch black snake guides. The varnish
