8’ 5wt Oyster Hart series with hand engraved ferrules and rainbow trout with gold inlay…also adorned with the states of West Virginia and Alaska on the reel seat.
We shipped this rod to a very special and enthusiastic client who allowed Bill to push his artistic endeavors. Fun fact: Bill’s designs and scroll work are unique to Oyster.
Before he even starts cutting, there are countless hours into the raw artwork itself to make the layout indigenous to the metal.
Another fun fact…Oyster rods perform as good as they look. Simple as that.
