Fenwick Feralite 9'

3 posts in this topic

I have an old 9'-1.5" Fenwick Feralite. It was wrapped many years ago w/Fuji guides (ones with a whiteish/green shock ring), the ferrule also got wrapped - for why I can't remember - anyway:

 

I just cleaned-up the wraps & coated them w/Threadmaster One & they look fine & I plan to repaint the rod w/as close to original red/brown & use it.

 

So Is there any way to determine what reels, lines, etc. it should take ???

 

Thanks ...

The Fiberglass Flyrodders website has a Wiki page with details on most glass fly rods. The section on Fenwicks shows rods in that size were between 8 and 11wt lines. The length you mention could either be a 9ft or a 9ft 3in. They didn't make one the size noted. If you can narrow better to one or the other then you can narrow the line weight better.

Maybe the tip broke and it lost a inch and a half? Maybe that's why they rewrapped it?
