I posted this question on the Classic FR-Bamboo Forum but didn’t get any responses.
I know that here on the forum we all fish and collect fiberglass rods but also some of us end up with some bamboo and graphite rods in our collections.
I have a South Bend 1190 open back face spool, made in 1935 only (Hardy Perfect clone).
It is an anodized dark burgundy color. I have been looking for a bamboo rod to match up to it for some time and found one that was thread wrapped with the same dark burgundy color. It is a custom rebuild and has no original markings left on it. Does anyone recognize the reel seat, grip, or ferrules? The only markings on it say “Steelhead Special” 9ft so I am hoping it is an 8-9wt which is what I need for the big SB 1190 reel. Rod is 10.3oz and reel 9oz with no line.
