Hunt Maxwell Leonard 6' 3/2 #4 Tip
by Hunt
25 is actually 24.5 rod has the quick action typical of the Hunt series but is a true 4 wt. with enough delicacy to make small fish enjoyable. A great taper (at least in my book)! The swelled butt is impossible with a standard planing form (it can be averaged)and this taper as written needs step down ferrules(which also can be averaged). Marty DeSapio
