Morgan 804

A presentation Tom Morgan 804 build on a NOS blank I got from Shane Gray who kindly offered me a blank from his stock. This along with the 803 may, hands down, be the finest light-line trout rods ever designed. 

Appointed with a modified wells grip (snub nose) from the finest cork available, signature radiused style Lemke reel seat with gorgeous Oregon walnut insert that has received my usual coat of epoxy for the most lustrous and toughest finish. 

Arcane agatine nickel silver stripping guide (the finest stuff) with Snake Brand guides wrapped in black and gold single trim accents and the classy strap&ring hook keeper. 

The script on this rod is special too, as the ink I used is a blueish grey. 

This rod is "one-of-its-kind" and its owner a very lucky guy that has waited a long time for this beauty. I hope the wait has been well worth in the end. Thanks for looking!
