Bristol Bamboo Rod
I have a Bristol Bamboo Flyrod. On the rod it says Bristol F12-81/2'. On the rod sack it says "Bristol" Fishing Rod, The Horton Mfg. Co. Bristol, Conn. Can anyone of enlighten me as to what I have. It appears to be U.S. made and it is quite old. The wraps are in excellent condition for its age ( no broken wraps) and both of the tips are straight as an arrow. I don't see any splits in any of the sections. It is a three piece rod with two tip sections. The handle looks like it has seen its fair share of hours on the water. The guides are tarnished and somewhat rough but otherwise in good shape.
