Quality all round....lovely rod.
I had a spoilt cousin who on his birthday had his annual visit to that shop. Although I was a tad jealous he was not only my cousin but best mate.
Very nice.. has the Hardy type ferrels and but end accessory as seen in the Hardy catalogues.

The Gamages Greendrake rod post rebuild and mated with my Altex, many thanks to Old Angler (Rod Storey) for a lovely rebuild... I used it earlier in the week touch legering for Perch on my club lake, as the local rivers were over their banks... 3 Perch was the meagre haul, but the rod is gorgeous and well matched with the Altex... or possibly a Mitchell 314... a smaller pin would be a nice touch too... maybe a 3.5" Hardy Eureka...? Or my 3.5" Allcock Popular
Or a certain old 1947 Rapidex I have in my little collection...😉
