Hardy Bros. Palakona 7 1/2' 5-6wt Bamboo Rod 7'3" The ferrule fit is good

The ferrule fit is good but not as tight as some would like although the "pop" is there upon disassembling the two sections

The reverse half wells grip measures 6 3/4" in length with a rather slender profile

This is a lightly used 1950's era rod and one of the nicest Payne rods I have seen in a while

The rod features fiberglass spigot ferrules for the utmost sensitivity and weight reduction

tips are mirrored
