    Got any pictures? What length is it?

    How do you know it was built by John Little?

    p.s. It's a rod not a pole.
    When you can arrange your affairs to go fishing, forget all the signs, homilies, advice and folklore. JUST GO.

    I know the name I once was shown a rod made by John little by the owner of Durmhills sporting goods Mr durmhill was a well of knowledge if it had anything to do with fishing or huntting, now mr Durmhiller is gone and so is the store which was in Walla Walla WA. Mr drumhill told me he was a (what I rememeber) a rod maker from around the seattle area and use a dove tail to join the rod together He informed me if I ever found a bam boo rod made by this fellow try to own it , now this is all second hand knowledge told to me over 30 years ago but old John Drumhiller never did wrong by me and I never found him in an unturth, John Drumhiller was a man worth knowing
