Hi Bob,
Welcome to the forum!
As far as I know, the rod was made in the very early 70s. However, Scott rods aren't my specialty. I have sent a message to a forum member who should know. If you get a chance to post some photos of the rod and the storage tube label, that would help with identification. For instructions on posting photos here,

Note added: I contacted Larry Kenney about this rod. Here's his reply:
Bill Rhodes did a lot of photography for Dan Blanton's early angling writing in Angler Magazine. I’m sorry to hear he's not doing well. He, like Dan, Harry, and Neal Bohannon, were members of the San Jose Flycasters club. We sold a lot of rods through Neal's shop.
The rod in question was probably built in 1973 or 1974 and may or may not have been on a Lami blank. That's about the time Harry Wilson was switching to Cal Tackle built blanks. The "A" simply indicates that it came out of Harry's garage workshop rather than from one of our later shop locations. If it’s semi sanded it's not a Lami. An image would help. A #6 line trout rod of almost any length was pretty common back then....the lighter line revolution didn't happen until the late 70s. I think that model would have been labeled as an F76.
If in good shape it's certainly collectible.
