I've only taken this rod on a boat a few times as a sub-tackle for tuna casting. There are some minor scratches, but no significant damage. The guides are in good condition with no rust, and I've stored it well. Would be great for tuna casting, long-distance fishing trips, etc. Please understand that all sales are final (no returns, no refunds, no exchanges). Please refrain from purchasing if you are overly concerned about condition. I have many other casting tackle items for sale, so I may be able to offer a discount or combine shipping if you purchase multiple items. Please contact me in the comments section. Thank you.
