I bought this rod at a ridiculously low price a couple of years ago, it seemed to have been rewhipped and a fuji style bottom eye put on i'm guessing in the 70's.
My good chum Paul D and I are pretty sure it's an Allcocks so if any of you gentlefolk can identify it for me I would be most grateful.
A general description -
10'2" approx length built cane
Bottom section approx 42" including button
Mid section approx 41.5"
Top section approx 40.5"
Handle 18" (20" including button and metal bit at top of handle)
The female ferrules have the number 22 stamped in them
Pretty sure it's an Allcocks but not a clue which one

The reel bands look like those used by Edgar Sealey, but I could be wrong...
