It looks like you’re referencing a Scott Powr Ply fly rod, specifically a 7’8″ WF-5F (weight-forward 5-weight floating line) model with a brown glass blank and “Free Packing” (likely indicating it came without a tube or case). The “Cas San Francisco” might refer to the rod being sold or located in the San Francisco area.
Key Details:
– Model: Scott Powr Ply (a vintage fiberglass fly rod series from the 1970s)
– Length & Line Weight: 7’8″ for a 5-weight line (WF-5F)
– Blank Color: Brown glass (classic for early Scott fiberglass rods)
– Condition: “Free Packing” suggests no original tube/case
– Rarity: “Super Rare” implies this is a hard-to-find model
What Makes It Special?
– Scott Powr Ply rods were early fiberglass rods from Scott Fly Rod Company (before they became famous for graphite).
– The 7’8″ 5-weight is a desirable length for small-stream fishing.
– Brown glass blanks are less common than the usual amber or green.
Valuation (Approximate):
– If in excellent condition: $400–$800+ (collectors seek these)
– If used but fishable: $200–$400
– Without original tube: May lower value slightly.
Where to Find More Info:
– Check fiberglass fly rod forums (e.g., Fiberglass Flyrodders).
– eBay sold listings for comparable Scott Powr Ply rods.
– Vintage tackle dealers (like Lang’s Auctions).
