Kennet perfection

Post by Greentura »

This is my Kennet Perfection, fully restored with correct bits and new cork. All the intermediates and guide whippings have been replaced in dark green. Original bag and butt stopper but missing the other stopper for the middle ferule, will find one sometime. quite dark cane and possibly a Bob Southwell rod as it's far stiffer than any others I've seen. Nice to use with medium sized avon floats and chubbers but needs some weight to bring out it's best. This was a basket case when i got it but i don't have any before pictures.[img]http://i1218.photobucket.com/album ... .jpg[/img]

excellent job, Sir.
