Very nice find indeed. I have far to many dreams about this happening. Probably the best blank I own was found on the market for £10, all I need to do now is find the time to make something of it.

Thank you for your comments gentlemen.

A lovely rod, and meant to be, I think.

With luck like that Mark, you'll go and break the carp record on her maiden voyage.
Well done you.

He said he wasn't turned on by massive carp, but prefer smaller, more english looking carps, if you catch my drift.

Re: I couldn't believe my luck
Looking out of my office window I wish I was fishing too!
Still lunch time i shall slip back into my recurring daydream of finding a Chapman 500, MKIV Carp rod and a Wizard for next to nothing at the huge boot sale which is on near me in better weather!

I know that feeling.... working on farm land my daily views are, one side a small farm pond with sunbathing carp, the other the River Whitewater

I can see St James Park. There are some massive Rudd in the lake there and a 30lb+ carp.
I sometimes feed the Rudd from the bridge in the summer.
