Jenkins Rod Co. – GASC80L-1, 8'0" 4wt.
This s a very rare Jenkins bamboo fly rod. This is the very first 80L Charlie made. It's an 8' 0" 2/2 4wt weighing 3 5/8 oz. Serial number GASC80L-1. This rod consists of medium tempered cane with Payne like color wraps. Cigar grip measures 6" in length. Classic cap and ring over a cork spacer. Ferrule is size 14 with a perfect fit. In my hand, the action is on the medium side of medium-fast feeling much like a Payne 200.
