This is an HRF rockfish rod for bait reels. I used it about 10 times after purchasing it, and then stored it. It's the perfect length and stiffness. There are small scratches in places, but there are no problems with use. There are no scratches on the guides. I think it's still in good condition. Please refrain from purchasing if you are sensitive to minor imperfections. Instant purchase is OK. Thank you.
