A fine Orvis Battenkill from 1968, the Wes Jordan era, featuring Orvis’s distinctive impregnated bamboo construction. At 7’6″ and 3 7/8 oz., this is an exceptionally versatile and popular rod - light, refined and perfectly suited to smaller rivers and streams. Medium-Medium fast action.
The impregnated finish gives the rod the understated appearance and durability for which these Orvis rods are renowned. It has no set. The cork grip shows honest signs of use, with a pleasing patina, but remains sound and supple, with no drying or deterioration.
The rod is accompanied by its original Orvis tube and a non-original rod sock.
