I was watching it! Only a select few bid over £100 - 5 in fact. I think I have only seen one prior to this on ebay - so an unusual/rare rod.

Hello Reelmaker,

I too followed that auction, although it was far beyond my budget, just to see what it would fetch. It looked like a very nice and rather rare rod that someone will thoroughly enjoy. Was it anyone on the forum?
