Great rod.
Brad could use that stick to rope some big Montana toads.

He was just over here last week. Got to hang out with him and Judi.

That rod looks so clean, did your Dad ever fish it?

 

[Porter2]

He did and I can tell. But now it’s cleaner than clean. The old man took good care of the rod. That’s all I can say. The cork grip was in amazing great condition. Have no idea but dedicated it to some salt and river mouth operations. Yes it is one of many I own. They are a finess beast of a rod to cast and fish with. IMHO.

 

[Sam Roffe]

He must have, but just a few times.

He was actually pretty hard on his rods, the ones he fished over and over. He just didn’t fish 8 wts much.

Glad you’re going to put the ole XP to work…

 

[chrome/22]

Yeah I've seen some of Bob's (Sam's Dad) old rods, he fished them hard and often, and that saltwater just is a nasty environment on gear

 

[Sam Roffe]

He had thumb indents on all his heavily fished rods. I replaces a few handles for him..

 

[Porter2]

I have seen a couple rods like that. Not a fan of the thumb imprint grip. The rod cleaned up easily. (Not that it was bad to begin with). Great grip shape and cork on this one. Hey if any of you want an another great steelhead/salmon SH rod he’s sitting on a great Scott rod.

All this talk I might want to buy it back
