I hate to hijack this thread but i was able to cat one of Robert Bolts rods last weekend. I went over the rod with my eyeballs first, the fit and detail were astounding , engraved ferulles and the like, finish was flawless, casting was incredible. I belive the bamboo rods that some people produce today are so much better than the older stuff. That being said I do not know if the new rods will ever be as sought after as the traditional rods that everyone seeks.
Hey splinter3,
Check your PM. Funny you should ask... I just ran across this same rod at an antique store. Didn't buy it, but I might. Sure looked nicely done. Pretty. How does it cast and what line weight do you judge it to be?
And Betty darlin, you are a treasure! How the devil did you find that link?
