I need some advice on a fishing rod ?
I have a old fishing rod that was bought new by my grandfather and never used, it was made by Ken Bruce who later became half of bruce and walker an English Spey rod company. They formed nearly 60 years ago so this rod is at least 60 years old and as I said never used. Could someone give me a rough valuation please.
model number, length, weight, how many pieces, extra tip, condition, actual name on label on the rod, material (is this a bamboo rod?)...
you need to add a LOT more information to get even a wild guess.
let me tell you this. some bruce and walker rods sell for 1000 pounds and more.
l think the missing info is quite important.
you can always contact them. l think they are still in business.
