Ed, I think those HBL black rings will look lovely on a Lucky S with black and yellow whippings. If you need a tip ring to match let me know.

Thanks Wal, I just had a set in my stash, thought it would be nice to use them. I have a tip thanks. What would they have been fitted to originally?

They appear on a few Milwards rods, Swimversa maybe and the featherlite range. They also became popular on many glass rods.

Thanks GB.

I think I may join you in angering the cane gods here :secret: but I think your lucky will look stunning with those black high bells :secret:
Please send me some photos when she’s done I would love to see her fully kitted out in her stealth high bells but feel free to pm them to me if you wish to avoid the wrath of the purists :Chuckle:

I will mate, further to the stealth rings I shall probably do it in matt varnish! The last few rods I have done in gloss and it is just too bright even after a rub down with a racing pink.

Here goes, bit of a set in the tip section maybe because it is rather floppy! Bit of mouse damage to fix, maybe another coat on the whippings. Colour is gudebrod.

Looks great Ed, hope she gets you a fish or five when you get her out on the bank in stealth mode.
