Orvis Midge 7'6 4-5wt Bamboo Rod AL Walker The reel remains in nearFor sale here is a 7'6 Orvis Midge impregnated bamboo rod. I like it best with a DT4 even though it's labeled a 5wt. Serial #63716 built in 1971. The rod is in excellent overall condition. One tip slightly sweeps to the right and the other one is straight. It weighs 3 5 8 oz and the ferrules are 11 64 and fit together well. Medium action. No invisible wraps or hook digs. Original labeled tube with original bag.
