Any idea of the maker? - Dryrod - 07-22-2005

[center][unsure][/center][center][font "Poor Richard"][green][size 4]As I have previously mentioned, have a bamboo rod that was passed down from my father. He obtained it in either the 30's or 40's. Apparently it wasn't new for he dismantled the rod completely, refinished all parts then reassembled it. No marking were left on the rod.[/size][/green][/font][/center] [center][font "Poor Richard"][#008000][size 4]It is a 9' five piece rod. I am guessing that the rod must be at least 70 to 80 years old. Here is a picture. Any guess as to the vintage and or maker?[/size][/#008000][/font][/center] [center]

Your rod has the same but section as mine, but mine is an 8 ft 3 piece 5 wt rod. I also have a second top piece for it. Like I said mine was custom made maybe 70 to 80 years ago back east by Acromonie and Finch store.
