Vintage Fenwick Fly Fishing Rod


Question
We have our uncle's Fenwick rod, still with original sock and metal case.  FF75-4, 7 1/2, 3 1/2 oz., E 34069.  The rod is in excellent condition; looks brand new.  Could you provide the year and an estimate of its price?
Thanks.

Answer
Hi Elizabeth,

The Fenwick FF75-4 model was most likely produced during what is called the First Generation of the Feralite rods between 1963-1971.  It is a four piece rod with one tip, made of fiberglass.  With the original bag and tube, and in excellent condition, this rod would be valued in the $125-$150 range.

These old Fenwicks have a strong following in certain quarters and if you should find one of those people who only fish with Fenwick, you might be able to get a bit more.  It is a nice rod.  Very portable and easy to pack in and out of the back country.  It would do well out west where I live.

Thanks,  Joe
