2121 -6. Paul Young Martha Marie
7 1/2', # 5 line, 2 tips, bag and tube. Rod was built 1974. This is one of the last rod's I made while working for the Paul Young Company. It is all original looks almost new. Its been used very little. The original owner was a long time customer of Paul Young's . I remember him visiting the shop many times in Detroit in the late 1950's early 1960l's when he ordered this rod, he had moved to the west coast and would of been about seventy years old. So this rod did not get much use. I have not cleaned the handle and it's still real clean. The Martha Marie model is a great all around 7 1/2ft. trout rod. Paul designed it for his wife for use on Michigan Au Sable river. Martha had a habit of hooking in a sixteen inch brown trout. This rod has enough back bone to control such a fish.
