Hi,
I am trying to get a photo of a Shakespeare 7'9" fiberglass 2-piece fly rod. It is the model FY-220 Executive Extra-Light. It is from 1966 and weighs 3.5 ounces. Takes line HDH (line 6).

Also need a photo for Shakespeare FY-340 Standard Taper, line 7, 3.75 oz, 1973 2-pc fiberglass fly rod.

Any help would be appreciated!!

I have an unmarked Shakespeare 7'9" 2 pc fiberglass fly rod that weighed 3.5 oz. I re-varnished the rod, so the present weight is 3.7 ounces. The catalog suggests that it is either a model FY-220 or a FY-340 based on rod weight. If I could view one of the other of these rods in a color photo, I could ID my rod correctly. My unmarked Shakespeare Wonderod has maroon and black windings, a cigar shaped cork ring handle and reel seat. I examined the entire list of vintage rod descriptors on line and it boils down to one or the other of the two choices above based on the unique rod weight involved. I want to correctly ID the unmarked rod, for it appears to be a top light fly rod with a welted rather than rolled female ferrule. This feature suggests it may be the FY-220 Extra Light Executive model. A photo would verify. Make sense? Hopper Ron.
