Redlip Shiner Fly by Keith Fulsher 8' and "835" on the wrap

and "835" on the wrap flat

the latter with the Leonard pewter colored frost anodizing and a handsome brass top

It differs from my later rods by the following two details: there is a wooden lip on the reel seat where it meets the rear of the grip and the wraps are a slightly darker shade of red then the current "may rose" color that I would later settle on (with edges that are also slightly darker)

Comes in an original Hardy pouch
