4wt fly rod and reel Combo - Patagonia Series IV Paired with the tough Redington Wrangler Kit Pond

The rod butt appears to be heavily ribbed hickory, severely mushroomed end cap held in place with a brass nail, and wrapped with two diameters of hemp or manilla twine, painted brown

Someone might point out that some different serieses have for example 18000 and 20000 reels with identical ratios, but in that case one finds TWO different 18000 reels, one is a "P" and the other is an "H"

I have cought over 50 small mouth bass on this in the last 3 weeks and absolute love it

There is a table ranking all metals by what is called nobility
