Intriguing Allcocks fly Rod

Post by MartinD »

Good evening one and all - new member here, and first post.

I have a rather nice (but it needs re-ringing) Allcocks "The Peerless No 2" fly rod, 9' 6", 3 piece,reinforced spigot ferrules, nice and straight. No makers decal but S Allcocks etc is impressed into the butt cap. The intriguing bit, is that it has a leather rapped handle, much like you would see on an old wooden tennis racket and "appears" completely original. I have search the internet on and off for several years and not found anything similar. Any observations gratefully received. (I will try and attach a photo!).
Thanks
Martin
