Default Fly Rod Restoration

I met a gentleman that would like to restore an older Orvis fly rod. Rewrap and perhaps guides.

Do to some serious health issues he is unable to fly fish with his son but would like this rod restored to pass along to him.

If someone could recommend someone or take on this job themselves it would be greatly appreciated. I won't say money is no object but this gentleman is certainly willing to pay for a quality job.

Thanks,
MK

Contact Colin Dunn (CDone) on here! He does awesome work and has built me 4 rods and done repairs on one of my 1st rods. Also has done repairs for most fly shops in Calgary.
