Orvis Battenkilll 7' 4 wt.
by Orvis
I am not impressed of the workmanship the Orvis have an uneven ugly looking glue line but very little diff. from flats to flat. Looks like they use some kind of epoxy the glueline is filled with translucent glue. T&T have a finish I only could dream for on my rods at my stage but the readings differ between the flats by more mentioned on the list the other day................ Anyway here it is with section length and guidespacing:Orvis Battenkill 7/4 # 3 piece tip is 28 11/16
