Help with fly rod company name ?

[chris from canada]

Hey guys,

I guess I am getting old, I can not remember the name of an older rod company.

They sold mostly regular gear mostly salt water I think, and some fly rod combos, they were USA based.

I do not know if they still exist?

It was a short name; like penn ,or scott.

They were not by any means luxurious rods, but good old go to rods that were tuff.

Not a modern company.

Just spit out any names that come to mind, sooner or later someone will mention it.

It has been driving me crazy for the last 3 days.

Thanks for the help.

Chris

The "mostly salt water" throws me....but........Fenwick comes to mind as a "middle of the road" builder?
Lamiglass
Eagle Claw (I realize it is two words, but throw it out anyway)

'Fisher' comes to mind as close to your description.

Penn made salt rods and reels.

Seeker?.....though we mostly used their blanks.

"Master" maybe.

Still see spinning gear with that name. Have seen a number of old Master fly rods come through our shop to get guides rewrapped

And another would be Martin

Kunan
Talon
