Found this Classic Milwards Bamboo rod when I was out in BC, at first I thought it was a spey rod, but it's too short. Furrules fit really nice. Very tight clean rod. Perhaps a Salmon rod. Have to do some research. All Agate eyes that could use a bit of polishing. I may do a restoration on it. It was pure black with grime when I bought it but have it cleaned up nicely. Hard to resist Bamboo. Always looking for rods to restore.

Yep 10 footer, nice estimate. I will re do the wraps this winter, will have to research the right silk color.

SD do you restore rods for others, or just yourself. Reason I am asking is I have my late grandfathers bamboo rod which could use a few touch ups before I put it on the wall for good.
