Heddon #10 Featherweight Blue Waters 7'6 2/2 4-5wt 8'8" Anodized gold aluminumFor sale here is a classic Heddon Model 10 Featherweight bamboo rod 7'6 2 2 4 5wt with the 0 3 4 ferrules. This rod has been fished sparingly, if at all. The previous owner sent it to Mike Clark to look over, Mike over coated the wraps and straightened the sections. It's a nice medium fast, smoother caster for a #10 (7 guides). I prefer it with a #5 line, but it does cast a #4 well too. I would guess it's from 1951 1954.
