Ex-Display Condition and Buying Notes
As an ex-display rod, expect light signs of handling. There may be small scuffs on the blank, minor marks on the handle, or slight wear around the guides. The photographs are the best guide to the exact condition of this particular rod. This is clearance stock, so it is not sold as brand new. Buying ex-display or end-of-line stock is a good way to reduce the cost of a quality rod, but it pays to look carefully. Check the images for any chips or cracks in the blank, inspect the rod rings and tip top for damage, and make sure the joints fit snugly when the four sections are assembled. The 9'6" length suits a range of fishing situations, and the 4-piece build keeps it practical for travel. If you are new to fly fishing, a 4-piece rod is also easier to store at home and carry to the water.
