MKIV Carp

The MKIV Carp rod, designed by Richard Walker, is a classic cane rod taper produced by many companies. 

This particular rod was most likely supplied in kit form for the owner to finish themselves. 

The ferrules and cork fitted to this rod are of superb quality, probably better than the fittings used by B. James at the time.

Fully restored this rod features reinforced suction ferrules, Real agate butt and tip rings, low bells chromed intermediate rings, full length cork handle with sliding aluminium reel fittings and alloy butt cap with terracotta button.

A very well made rod, fully restored and ready to fish.
