look what I found

[am4mu]

I was just digging through the basement and found an old fly rod combo. I'm not even sure how I gained ownership but if my feeble mind serves me correctly I think I bought it new back when I was bass fishing all of the time.

Rod Shakespere FY1615 line weight 5-6

Reel Shakespere E Sigma 94

This is a glass rod that is a real buggy whip. Anyone have any more insight into what I have here. It seems like a K-Mart combo. This rig has to be over twenty years old.

Thanks,

Doug

Oh I forgot to mention the rod is 7'6"

Thanks,

Doug

What you have is a real fun fishing outfit! Line it up with new line and let it take you to a brim pond or bass creek and see how much fun you both can have.

The reel is nothing less than a rebadged Pflueger Medalist, one of the icons of flyfishing in America. The rod is desireable from 2 aspects---it is shorter than the average in the glass era which makes it more pleasure to use and it uses a lighter line than the vast majority of glass rods.

Congratulations on the rediscovery and if you don't like it I will be pleased to furnish my shipping address.;o) CC
