Default Can someone help me identify my st croix fly rod?

Hello,

First off, I know little to nothing about fishing. I just picked up a St Croix fly rod for I think a really good price.

I was hoping someone could tell me what I have, and aprox what it's worth.
On the rod close to the cork handle is a St Croix rod logo and then after that there is a sticker that reads:

4302-9/10-10'
Line Wt. 9/10

I went to the st croix website. They say that after 2001 the first 2 letters identify the month and year it was made, but since there are no letters???

thanks for any help!

Wade

If you post a picture, I'll tell you exactly what you have. No need to resort to numbers, St. Croix rods are easy to identify.
