8' Dickerson 8014 2/2 by Matt Schliske

feeds@yuku.com (gusstrand) — Mon, 09 Nov 2009 15:16:16 GMT

I had Matt Schliske (http://www.bamboo-fisher.com) make me this one about four years ago. It's been used about four times, if that. Bills are due, it's got to go. When I fish, it's usually spur of the moment, and it's really hot here, so I keep a lower end rod in my trunk. That means that this one has gone unused and has merely hung in the bag in my dark and air conditioned closet. I can't bear for it to not be...

3" Dingley "perfect" fs Sale pending

feeds@yuku.com (Short Tip) — Mon, 09 Nov 2009 13:44:55 GMT

Hi, this is a nice 3" Dingley marked for Westley Richards, little finish remaining and has a pleasantly oxidized surface. Single check, separate bearing, bronze lineguard, unfiled foot will fit nearly anything. RHW. D6 stamped to inside. The handle was replaced years ago by Archuletta's, he did not have the off white material at that time so it's a Hardy type black handle. I'm sure he could fit a closer replica now for small money. Working perfectly. A nice reel.

F/S: Edwards-made vom Hofe butt section--pristine

feeds@yuku.com (pcg) — Sun, 08 Nov 2009 19:51:23 GMT

How about this for an unusual offering? If complete, this would be one exceptionally rare rod. Only a couple Edwards-made vom Hofe rods are known. This butt section from a rod built between 1927 - 1930 came along & I couldn't resist. But it's been sitting alone for too long, & ultimately I now recognize I will never use it.

Specs: 54" long, pristine condition, the highly desirable N/S Wes Jordon reelseat, two vintage guides--one a like-new red agate--& a...
