I was given the Horrocks Rod shown in the pictures by a friend who was cleaning out his Uncle's house. I searched the web (Classic Fly Rod Forum) and believe that it was built in the early 1940s. It is an 8"8" 3 piece rod 7oz. with two tips, labeled "Spinner". It is in what I believe to be an original tube and sock, but both are in bad shape. The wraps and varnish appear to be good.
It is still too cold where I live to lawn cast, but I belive it to be in the 5-6wt range.
Does anyone have any further insight about this?
Thanks
