Vintage Orvis 8' Foot Battenkill Bamboo Fly Rod w/ Tube
Description
This impregnated Orvis Battenkill is a two piece with two tips. The rod is marked for an 6wt, but usually fished with a lighter line, following the rule of the thumb that Orvis rods fish one line size lighter than they are marked. It shows little to no use as is like new.  Comes with original aluminum tube (in which it will be shipped).  A beautiful rod.  I tried to get a close-up photo of the Orvis markings but was unable to get a decent photo, however it is there.
