  3. Loomis rod which convinced me that when I returned to Pennsylvania to retire that I needed a slow but substantial backbone. My first was an Orvis 6foot for 6 Madison that I sold when I was living in Atlanta Ga. Very good re-finished condition with the exception of some runs in the varnish which can be polished out.
  4. Agree with Tom there is something magical about bamboo. The rest of the rod is 100% Orvis in terms of finish and fittings. Winston Rod Company, ultimately becoming their chief bamboo rod maker.
  5. Medium brown semi-transparent thread wraps tipped with black. I liked it best with a SA Ultra Buckskin DT-3. Reverse half wells cork grip with nickel silver up-locking reel seat. The highest compliment one of our greatest storytellers received was from a character he created. The other side of the ring cap is stamped Tournament and Reg U. Red agate stripping ring and top tip Hope this is enough to reveal some secrets Jeff, this rod a true aristocrat, very nice to use, 6 wt. Nickel silver ferrules sizes 12 and18. Blued nickel silver female caballeros and wind check.
  6. Bamboo Fishing Rods - This rod is new. It is only the finish that is in poor condition.
  7. Just aquired a beautiful Farlows of London 8. Everything is sound, screw ferruls, teeny locating guides inside the ferruls, spare tip, the extra length below the reel suggests it is of an interesting age. Problem is, I can't find a Farlows dating system to check it's age through the serial no. Hardy do a detailed system, the only site I can find for Farlows mainly deals with Tweedy stuff which our broonies would laugh at. I was wondering if any of you guys could give me some steerage on a Farlows dating system. This old boy is so beautiful, it puts out so much karma, it would be plain uncivil to fish it and not know whence it came. I realise this is a long shot, but if you guys can't help, nobody can. However, I'll keep trying, I suppose all that's needed is the detective work that we've all struggled through to date our treasures. But, I will find out more, keep you posted on my findings. Slainte Mhath CC, if you tell me exactly how the rod is marked I believe I can give you a date or date range for the rod. The screwlock ferrules where patented by Farlows in the 1920's Jeff I am betting it is marked with one of the following C. LTD 10 Charles Street or C. Jeff, many thanks for this, here goes; Sliding reel seat set-up, Thick , ornate reel seat ,brass, top reel-leg slides into grip. Red agate stripping ring and top tip Hope this is enough to reveal some secrets Jeff, this rod a true aristocrat, very nice to use, 6 wt. Thank you for time and interest.
