Welcome Ian. I am sure you will enjoy landing a few with your Dad's rod and reel. Nice that. 👍
At the end of the game, the pawn and the King go back into the same box........

The rod is a fibreglass Milbro. He won it in the 60’s from the Angling Times catching a 6lb+ Chub from the Severn. Nothing overly special these days but a big fish back then. The rod was his pride and joy and though he had many others it was what he used most and fished for everything with it. It was originally 11’ but is now about 10’3” having been broken and repaired many times. I was forbidden to even touch it as a kid 😂

The reel is a Mordex Major centre pin. His go to reel was always a Mitchell 300 but he enjoyed trotting for roach which was were the pin came in. We lived on the banks of the Severn in those days and the roach fishing was phenomenal.
