The rod belonged to former MSBA President Tom Downey. Sadly Mr. Downey passed away recently and this rod found its way to the raffle table and to you.
Unfortunately, I was not involved with the club then, and never had the pleasure to meet or fish with him, but I am told that rod and reel is a sweet setup (obviously we see that by the look and feel) and has caught many, many nice fish, and has some serious mojo.
I'm sure that some others here on the board who knew Tom well will see this and can elaborate more on the rod and details.
Bobbike would be one in particular to have info.
Like Fisherwoman/Baitcasters post says, built by Arthurs Custom Rods, one of the best and fussiest builders around.
Best of luck with it.
