This is great information. The Gnome is building me a 7'4" mortised rod based on a Hawes taper. I believe that mine is one of three or four being
produced by Jeff using this specific Hawes taper. Jeff, you should chime in and tell us a little about the Hawes rod that you used/miked for the latest rods
you are building. Ric

Dr. Todd, Per this question (not Brandin!) Check out the first post in this thread (page one). I think it's from BDCanerod..but he seems to have
initiated this thread in 2005 with remarks about his 8' Hawes. I wish I still had mine...(dumb guy...idiot!)
Best fishes, Michael

Yes, I think I speak for many when I say, "YES!" We would all be tremendously interested in such photos! Please post if possible. Would be incredible
to see.

those pics would be very welcome! I still stare at times at the pics in "land of little rivers" of the leonard rod shop with Hiram Hawes in the
background. Cant believe this guy has made my rod no. A171!! Really makes me sentimental.
yes, he is not too well known but his rods emerg             e from time to time. mainly 9ft and longer.

Your recent post about the person--not referred to by name--who sold the Dickerson 8014 having a Hawes 9 1/2' rod for sale. That is me. I am puzzled.
Please tell me what you meant. Thank you. Jerry Stein

Dr. Stein, Greendrakes comment was not meant towards you. We are not supposed to name the major online auction sight by name due to the problems it has cased
in the past. Nothing was meant towards you, he was only making the comment that the same person who recently sold an 8014 was also now selling a Hawes in case
someone here wanted to try and purchase it.
Robert.

I have gotten a few requests for pics and questions, off thread, as to whether my new Kosmic was a Hiram or Loman Hawes. It is a rod made using a
Loman Hawes taper, however, it is a contemporary rod made by Hal Bacon under the reconstituted Kosmic marque which Mr. Bacon had negotiated to retain at the
time he sold the Payne name and bulk of remaining shop. Pictures would not advance analysis or add to the catalog from the standpoint of antiquities nor be of
historical benefit - other than moving forward with regard to Mr. Bacon's role as a rod maker of significance. Cosmetically, the rods resemble the Bacon
Kosmics posted by Bob Selb on his web site. They are not only lovely to look at but deserve being cast by those who can appreciate them.

Fascinating pictures.
Here is later Hawes, 8'9 3/2. This rod has a very smooth medium action and amazingly light feel.
