The other tip is numbered in Summers handwriting

For anglers seeking a fast-action rod that doesnt compromise on performance or control, the Foundation fly rod is a standout choice among Sage rods and other rods in its class

You simply take a hook and run the point through the nose of the Fluke until the point emerges where the slit of the belly starts

As was the custom at the time, this rod was furnished with a hexagonal wood case, in this instance of cherry that has aged to a gorgeous deep red with contrasting end caps in maple to match rod and reel seat spacer

Also, I like to pre coat the bare wood with a layer of epoxy to bond into the wood grain and protect the wood from water penetration, not sure which product would be best for that
