I recently picked up an old 4pc. Split cane rod. It has an extra tip for a total of five pieces. It has no markings, and the female ferrule of the butt section is split on both sides. I initially picked it up with the hopes of rebuilding it and fishing with it, but know my curiosity is peaked. The complete rod is about 8' long, and it only has 5 guides(including the tip) there is no Stripping guide at all, nor does it look like there ever has been. I'm just trying to see if anyone might be able to help me identify it. It has a simple green cotton bag, and no tube and the wrappings appear to be either brown, or maroon. It also has a rattan grip as opposed to cork, and a slide ring reel seat. Any ideas??
