    Default Used HI Ferrule wanted.

    I also posted this on the "Wanted" page but incase y'all don't check that page regularly I am posting here.
    I recently came upon an HI Governor 9' with all metal parts buffed dull. I'm hoping to find a seasoned mid-ferrule to match. This ferrule is wider on the bamboo and tapers to an opening that fits a 3/16 male tip section. If you have a set that came off an HI rod sitting about, please PM me so we can discuss price.
    Thanks

    I think I may have a couple rods lying around that I can cannibalize for parts Are you needing a full set, or just a male/female? I'll PM you after I get home and dig through the rods.

    Joe,
    A female specifically, and if you have the male counterpart(s) with the female that would be great.

    "This (female) ferrule is wider on the bamboo and tapers to an opening that fits a 3/16 male tip section".

    Thanks my friend.

    Unfortunately, Joe did not have the size ferrule I needed. So, I'm still on the hunt for the step-down 3/16 HI style ferrule. If you've got one, please contact me.

    Thanks Leo! Another member will be looking thru his stash. If it does not work out, I'll check w/RR.
