Quinette Mk4

Post by AshbyCut »

I've been lucky enough to acquire today a nice example of this 9ft, 2 piece fly rod which has been stored away for some time ... straight as a die ... all guides without rust and whippings present and intact ... the ferrule pops satisfyingly and doesn't knock ... the varnish peeling a little in places, but nothing a light sanding and a couple of fresh coats won't fix.

I shall post photos tomorrow when I can take some in the light.
