I'm going to give my son my Orvis fly rod for his birthday. I bought it
new
~15 years ago when graphite was new. I can't find any info on it. Any
help
will be appreciated.

It's Green Mountain Series 8' 2-7/8 oz, for 6-weight graphite with an
Orvis
Madison reel. As I recall I bought it from the Dallas Orvis store and
paid
$200+.


I believe the current outfit is called the Orvis Streamline 865-2 Mid
Flex.:

It's not a 6wt, but a 5wt. but a good starter kit and a great B-day
present. Brings back memories when my dad bought me my first outfit on my
B-day years ago.
What a great dad you are!

Funny, cause I just saw the 30-day risk free trial, so if your son doesn't
like it, you can bring it back to Orvis and buy him the Heavy Metal Boom Box
that he really wants.
