noticed the first (largest) guide is reversed, compared with the others. Is that typical for this type of rod?
huh interesting. I have the same rod, and never noticed that before.. mine is the same, so must be intentional.
Agree it's true to weight, good old Cortland 444 6wt or similar is best for me.
As Tom says, there's no matching for wraps that old. I used Gudebrod #5274 chestnut brown on a FF75-4 to wrap over a couple of abrasions, and it's nothing like the Voyageur wraps although it matches a different older Fenwick quite well..
