Ah, he is 'Olivers Rods' having bought the name from Ted Oliver. Nice chap, sells on eBay....some rather strange listings, but he has some marvellous stocks of rod making stuff.

Nice chap yes,said he had been going years, thought he knew it all about rod building,
and then he met Ted Oliver.
I saw his gold teeth when he smiled,i liked him,he had stories to tell, he looks in here now and again.
He had a black wizard with gold inters that was a very nice rod.
It is the first time I have seen a black lacquered rod.
