whats the rating number on it ??

It reads 3.5/8th oz 8wt line, mid flex 6.0 99.
That's all I can tell you other than that its a nice rod.

6.0 is a little to soft for I am looking for, they made one with a rating of 8 and it was a power house. I should have bought one when i was still at orvis.

Can you explain the numbers mean? I'm curious.

Bump. $115. Who will rid me of this meddlesome rod? Seriously, and no BS, this a sweet bass stick. I will ship it to you on approval. Cast it. If you don't like it send it back. All you are out is shipping. It doesn't get fairer than that. I will sweeten the pot and ship in a very nice aluminium threaded tube, worth about $30 by itself.

Black blank or the green blank???

Black blank or the green blank???

Its a sort of charcoal grey with what appears to be dark green wraps. The bag is green, and it has a detachable fighting butt if that helps.

OK folks, this is getting silly. I'm trying to sell a freaking like new Orvis in an aluminum tube, shipping paid, for about hundred bucks and no hits? What more can I do short of including a stripper to give a lap dance with the package? Here is my final offer. $100 tyd. I will send it on approval. Cast the thing yourself. If you like it pay me, if not send it back. You will never find a fairer deal than that. I mean someone must want a bass or steelhead rod. And you won't find a better one for this price or under these terms. You know you want it… All the cool kids have eight weights, and they'catching bass. It's what makes them cool. .

Thats a sales pitch!!!

Okay, no stripper, but how about a reel? I'm selling an Okuma 7/8 NIB with paperwork. Its the perfect bass outfit. I'll do $150 shipped. But wait, there's more, it comes with two WF8F lines and backing. Seriously guys, don't make me offer an oriental bamboo steamer, because I will, and that would just be sad. Buy the rod. Its a nice piece of kit and the price is right.
