John Bradford Bamboo Fly Rod 7'9" 3/1 #5 8 The drag is excellent mechanically

The drag is excellent mechanically with a nice loud click

The rod is very lightly fished

Mechanically the reel is still in good condition with a RHW fixed check and some end play like most Uniqua-style reels

Harada finished the rod with his masterful touches

Thank you very much for your support of the CFFCM

John Bradford Bamboo Fly Rod 7'9" 3/1 #5 8 The drag is excellent mechanicallyA John Bradford Legacy model bamboo fly rod, 7'9", 3 piece, 1 tip, and built for a #5 line. Medium full flexing action. Good used condition with some basic cosmetic wear from use but no major issues that I can find (there is a small and relatively minor hook dig above the second guide up on the mid). The rod is straight and the ferrule fits are good. Inked "JA Bradford Mod. 791511", "Legacy", "7'9" 4 3 8 ounces", and "SN. 1650" on successive flats
