Leonard Prefire #36H #37H 6 2pc. #3 - marty


Hi All, Here is a taper from a Leonard 36H/37H  for you short rod nuts
(as I am). I have seen this 6' 2pc. model marked 36H or 37H. I have been
told by an ex. Leonard employee that the salesman in the retail stores
would fill out the hanging tag as the rods were sold so many are
mismarked. This rod was made in the 1950's and is sweet.A much nicer
fishing tool than the 36L which at 1 oz is very impractical. This rod
handles a #3 very nicely. 
    Measurments are over varnish. DEDUCT .003
