Leonard Salmon Rod 9' 4/2 #8/9 1 Weight Hank's first shop was locatedA very rare and unusual HL Leonard salmon rod, 9', 4 piece, 2 tip built for a #8 9 line. Serial #840, which suggests a 1969 or 1970 manufacture date. The rod sections measure out to 27 1 2" which helps it packs up into a very transportable size. On the faster side of most Leonard actions. The overall condition is very good and fishable. No varnish issues and good ferrule fits. Blonde cane in three up node pattern construction. Wrapped in a honey tan
