Comments Not sure of length or weight. Sorry to be so long in getting back to you. Got involved with some steelheads and chinooks. A 42 inch chinook will just not be rushed. I miked two Orvis Flea rods in 1970. They tracked each other pretty well. I liked the rods so I built a few. Here are the numbers measured over varnish: The top guide was size 5 and the ferrule was size 10. Just in case anyone else might be interested I'll post this to the list. Bill
