I am pretty sure there is a member on here who has one I recall being told about it.

Re: Dennis Pye Pike two piece NL?
The DP is a two piece and the NL introduced as a budget version but just as good as the difference was only cosmetic. The 700 is a different rod altogether and more common.

Re: Dennis Pye Pike two piece NL?
I’m a bit confused now.
I thought a 700 was a DP?

Re: Dennis Pye Pike two piece NL?
The 700 is a Denis Pye. It,s the separate handle version.
The Chapman Dennis Pye 700. 10′ 3 piece Pike rod 1960.
1960 Catalogue description. This rod has the precise action and test curve of a standard Dennis Pye Pike rod but supplied in two 3’ 11” lengths with detachable handle.

Re: Dennis Pye Pike two piece NL?
The NL above is 3 piece not 2 + butt section.
Therefore there must be 3 versions!
2 sections - as per LMJ
3 sections - as per LMJ 1962 catalogue
and 2 sections + butt - 700 version??
Gets more strange!
