Sorry if ive posted this in the wrong section guys but i need everyones help...

I came across and old rod that my dad used to own (he passed away a few years ago )

I want to find out about it if possible..

All i know is that its a shakespeare diamond 1309 rod?

Length: 2.70 metres

Action B-60

That's all it sais......its a bronzy goldy colour with a large cork handle split up into segments.

If anyone has any clue about this please tell me!

Cheers guys

As it's split cane it may have a value Google for collectors of vintage fishing tackle

the rest is easy
2.7m long
Action B is a soft top rod and If I remember right slightly firmer in the mid section
( A was top soft only C was a through action rod)
the 60 after it is 60grammes the test curve of the soft bit

IF the cork is split into rings then it's getting past it as that's how cork handles are made then they are all glued together and sanded to look like one bit of cork

I MAY WELL be wrong but if I'm not mistaken this is match rod with the good old silver rings with no plastic lining inside them and is very whippy through the first 6ft .they were very popular in the early 80s and i think my dad also had one. however if this is the rod in question its not that expensive.

Has anyone else ordered fishing tackle from Easytackle.com ? I order a few items in October and have not had any items sent to me or any responce to the emails I send them. They have taken my money and i have not heard from them since.

Anyone else having this problem with easytackle.com ?
