$3,500.00
8', # 5 line, 2-piece, 2 tips, bag and tube. Tube is made from aluminum conduit left over from the Willow Run Bomber plant near Detroit. Where the B 24 Liberators were built, 8,685 of them. At Peak production a complete bomber was assembled in one hour. The book " Arsenal of Democracy by A.J. Baime". tells how this happened. Rod was built 1953. I refinished it in November of 2012 including new cork. This is one of the rarest of the Paul Young model's. It is one of the best 5 wt. rods I have ever cast. I worked for the Paul Young Co starting in 1956 till 1974 and would guess there were no more than twelve of this model made.
