Foster's greenheart 9foot fly rod

Post by Graeme »

I have just collected a 3 piece green heart fly rod. Butt and middle in greenhear with a split cane top. The grip is cork and the butt button is wooden. I would like to know its age. I hope to have it ready to fish by April. It is in excellent condition for its age. Any info would be welcome. Thanks Graeme.

Do you have any pictures of the rod and some close ups of the fittings, it may help to compare with other rods in peoples collections.

Thanks for your reply. Will do that if I can as my tablet is very dodgy. Graeme.
