MCTFisher9120 Posted December 9, 2012 Report Share Posted December 9, 2012 Hey guys, I had somebody bring some older stream tackle by the store a few weeks back and one rod I was shown was a very good condition Lew's stream rod. I got the rod for cheap but knew that Lew's made rod's many years ago and just now were brought back into the fishing industry with new reels so far. Anyway I wanted to share some pictures of the rod, who know's if I'll ever use it Here is the info I know, I have been searching all over the net and can't find a value or picture of a similar rod. Hope to get some info on when it was made etc.. Lew's "SG" Graphite Speed Stick" SGN-2116ST 11'6" Noodle Action Made in Korea 1/16oz-3/8oz 2lb-10lb Pictures Handle section Logo Once More First Guide Model Info Put together it feels light and fairly crisp. Guessing it's from the 80's or 90's. Really not sure. Hope to hear some info on this one. Tightlines guys, MTBF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

esoxansteel Posted December 9, 2012 Report Share Posted December 9, 2012 I saw the title of your post Mike and the 1st thing I thought of was that I don't remember selling you anything LMAO I dont think you would use a rod weighted for 2 to 6 pound Lew, a little lite for muskies Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
esoxansteel Posted December 9, 2012 Report Share Posted December 9, 2012 They were out in the late 80s and early 90s, and were distributed by Normark in Oshawa, i did have 2 blanks that I built, one 12fter, and one 11 1/2 fter, bought the blanks for 25.00 each, there was a 13fter that is still sought after to this day, the factory guides looked like fuji hardaloys from the pic, definately not as desirable as a custom built 13ft Lews, but if you got it for a decent price your ahead of the game, if you get LEW to autograph it, the value will go up 10 fold.
