Old cane fly rod

[topknot]

Hi,

Picked me up another old split cane fly fishing rod that needs some TLC.











That's it so far.

Cheers Topknot

Looking good so far

A nice project - I don't fish but it would be quite nice to do the same!

I restored a split cane rod a good few years ago, it was a nice little project. Managed to find a wooden reel to go with it and now it's now hanging on the kitchen wall as an ornament.

Nice job have you managed to match a modern rated line to the flex in the rod?
