I am selling this item to organize my tackle. I purchased it in December 2021 and used it six times for fishing on rocky shores. I'm ashamed to say I haven't caught a single fish with it. After each fishing trip, I washed it with lukewarm water, dried it in the shade, and stored it in a closet. There are many scratches from use. All the scratches are shown in the photos, please take a look. There is rust at the base of the first and second guides from the butt section. The photos are of the actual item. I have included photos of the scratches and rust, but If you have any other questions, please feel free to comment. Shipping will be in a cardboard tube with cushioning material. It will be shipped in a 170 size package. *Please only purchase if you understand that this is a used item. *No returns accepted. *I do not offer discounts.
