I’ve been looking for a fly fishing set for my boyfriend but don’t really know what I’m looking for. I want something with excellent quality but that I’m not gonna spend a fortune for and preferrably something I won’t have to order online (I’m right near a Bass Pro that has a good stock). Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! And Merry Christmas!

Bamboo fly rod wanted horrocks ibbotson?
Saturday, July 3rd, 2010I’m trying to track down a bamboo fly rod mfg by horrocks ibbotson. I know they’re not the most desirable rods but I have ties to the company. I’ve tried ebay but a lot of time it’s people unloading junk. The condition is important but not the only thing. I’m looking for either the President or Chancellor model from circa 1920-30. These rods had the silver reel seat with the utica emblem engraved in it. Any leads on this would be greatly appreciated.
