Leonard 38H, 7 foot 2 piece 2 tip rod. 11/64” ferrule. 3.8 oz. One tip is scarfed about 4” down from the tiptop, nearly invisible; the second tip is a replacement with a CSE ferrule. Dark guides; bright ferrules. The new tip has lightweight guides; the red wraps match well. The grip is a 7-1/4” reverse half Wells, and the reel seat is butternut with bright square-thread screw downlocking hardware. The butt cap is marked “The/Leonard/Rod/H.L. Leonard Rod Co./Makers/Reg. U.S. Pat. Off.” Reportedly, this is a pre-fire rod. The bag and tube are original. It casts beautifully with either tip and a WF4F line.
