Hate to say it Dave, but there are fellows out there who repair fly rods
and two perfect tips alone are worth something. I guess you did not read
that I had the center section and tips. I wasn't trying to fool anyone,
but I guess I fooled you.


I read about the center section and tips, that's why I said it was not
now a fly rod. It takes three to tango with a three piece boo rod.
You got two pieces (second tip doesn't count). I didn't think you
were trying to fool *anybody*, and you certainly didn't fool me.


What I am looking for is a pro refurbisher, or
hobbiest. The wooden case looks to me to be recent home made, more than
Post WWII Japanese.


I didn't say it was "Post WWII Japanese." d;o) And the person that
did say it wasn't trying to fool you either.

I have several boo rods:
2 Kusses (a 4 and 5 weight with three extra tips, a Hamilton (4 weight
--betcha never heard of that one - few have one), a wonderful 5 weight
two piece made by Peter Collin, and a George Gehrke 4 weight *******
signed by George himself.

I'll sell you the ******* for $1200. d;o) Rod case extra, of
course!

Dave
