Thanks to fellow TFF member Peter Foster I am delighted and proud to announce that the 'national archive' of rods made by this family is about to number 60 !!! Thank you Peter, Sir.

Winging it's way to me is "The Gem," the 2 piece, split cane spinning rod with a 14 inch handle, which you may have seen mentioned in another thread.

I'll add photos when it arrives in my care.

Now that must be on hell of a rod rack you have AC

Well done Mal!

Is Mrs AC still rocking and muttering

Good grief, that's some collection, AC. Hope you've got good home insurance.

You could thatch your house with your rods Mal Looking forward to seeing the pics.

Nice one AC.....you'll have to move the Mrs out to make room....

Well done for your persistence

My Fair Lady is only worried about how she'll cope when she reaches pension age in 5 and a half years, and has to be here with me all day !!!

I'm working on creating a situation where she'll be sending me out fishing at every opportunity !!!

I suspect that the Council and neighbours might have something to say !!!!
