Title: Fishing Rods
Post by: john2244 on December 08, 2013, 08:00:41 PM
I recently completed my new rod racks.  In the past I had rods scattered in various bedrooms and the garage, now most of them are in my office.

This first group are all Calstar rods.

This second group is a "MIX BAG" of Truline, Sabre, Shimano, a couple bamboo, and a couple unknowns.

I know he does ;)

John, all I'm going to say is: beautiful!....if I ever decide to come over, I'm going to need more than one hour to take it all in, I would probably need a full day.
Thanks for sharing those with us ;).

one of your rods in the unknown rack looks very similar to one i have (just looking at the butt section of it).  mine is a 15' 4piece spinning rod i got off of e bay.  made by master fishing tackle corp.  i would like to know more about this rod.  can u tell me anything about yours, if indeed thats what it is.  best regards Daniel from costa mesa ca.

Daniel,

You may be looking at a 2 piece 14' Truline spinning rod.  There is also a 2 piece 12' Truline spinning rod in the same group.
