BRAND NEW MK IV!

Post by Leon Hoogendijk »

Received this one yesterday, built especially for me by John Hutchinson on a Chapman MK IV blank. Will have a few others (including an 11ft 2,25 lbs model) built by him for some friends this summer. To say I'm happy is an understatement!

Wonderful Leon, Sir. Enjoy !

A superb rod Leon .
A 11ft 2.25 lbs rod sounds interesting - i think there would be significant interest if there were more available with that spec.
