My uncle gave me this rod when I was 13 yrs old. It's been in the case ever since he has given it to me and as far as I know it has never had a reel put on it. Have no clue what it's worth, but it is one fine rod. It's 9 ft and in immaculate condition. Anyone know anything about these?

Re: Ted Williams Fly Rod
After doing a bit of research, it seems Ted Williams lent his name to a wide variety of sporting products for Sears back in the day, up till the early 70s. Everything from monofilament line to recurve bows to gun cleaning kits. Most of Ted Williams model products are fishing gear, but varies from fly gear to saltwater spinning rods, So, its possible that Ted never had anything to do with the development with most of the stuff, unlike current trends in fly rods. |

Yeah, i was going to say that when we went to the Keys a while back one of the guys brought a tent from 1963. It was from Sears and had the name Ted Williams on it. The canvas it was made out of was the same look and color of the case your fly rod is in.
