This is one of the rods I brought for display at the London Flyfishing Fair a few weeks ago. It's a Tom Morgan Rodsmiths 7'6'', 5wt rod, produced during the time Tom was still alive. One would think that the shorter length would make it stiffy, but this is a smooth, progressive taper with medium action. Off center reel seat with NS hardware, with a flush transition over to a straight cigar grip. Chrome guides and red silk. This rod is for sale through Alternative Tackle.

Thanks for looking!
Christian

I would love to build a 3wt with that style reel seat and grip. Would you be able to share details on that reel seat hardware?
