Up for auction an Extremely Nice 1947-1952 SOUTH BEND NO.59 9 FT. 3/2 SPLIT BAMBOO FLY ROD WITH ORIGINAL LABELED BAG. The No.59 was first introduced by the South Bend Bait Company in 1936 and would sell through 1952. Because this example carries the rectangular"SOUTH BEND- A Name Famous In Fishing" rodshaft decal, we know it's a post-war model built from 1947 to 1952. I've added a photo of the original listing from South Bend's 1947 catalog. Rodshaft is also stamped"59- 9' on an opposite flat.

Up for auction a Very Nice 1932-1935 SOUTH BEND NO.77 9 FT. 3/2 SPLIT BAMBOO FLY ROD WITH THE SOMEWHAT SCARCE ORIGINAL, CORRECTLY LABELED BAG, METAL TIP TUBE& TIP BAG. One that doesn't show up very often these days, the No.77 was an economy model that was first introduced in 1932 by the South Bend Bait Company and would sell right up until WWII. Because this is finished in what South Bend called"deep brown" and is equipped with the chromed screw-locking reel seat, we know this is an earlier example built from 1932 to 1935. I've added a photo of the original listing from South Bend's 1934 catalog. Rodshaft carries an absolutely perfect"South Bend Bait Company- Quality Tackle" oval decal. On an opposite flat is written"77- 9' in white ink. Built in"Bass" action from nice Tonkin cane and ... morecomes equipped with extra tip section, agatine stripping guide, 9) steel snake guides, hardened steel tip tops, welted South Bend ferrules, hook keeper, metal winding check, screw-locking reel seat, solid cork half-Wells grip and wound in black silk tipped in yellow-gold. The catalog lists the line recommendation as HDH or D, which is equivalent to today's modern 6 wt. line. Rod is in solid Fine condition for these early models, showing just light to moderate wear one would expect from normal use. Bamboo is perfect, with no splits, cracks or delamination whatsoever. All four sections are the correct equal length and are reasonably straight. Original varnish shows some scattered thinning, but remains in pretty good shape overall. All wraps are solid and complete. All guides, tip tops, ferrules(which"pop" nicely) hook keeper and reel seat are in very good condition. Winding check does have a crack, but remains solid. Solid cork grip shows only light wear. A great rod to collect or fish. Put up in the rather scarce original bag, which shows some ancient soiling& fading, but no holes or tears at all.

Because this example carries the rectangular"SOUTH BEND- A Name Famous In Fishing" rodshaft decal(used after WWII, from 1947-1952) and is equipped with the"Positive-Lock" reel seat(first equipped so in 1950) we know this was built from 1950 to 1952.

Superb 1946-1952 MONTAGUE #1LPF "Lake Pleasant" 9', 3/2 Split Bamboo Fly Rod
Up for auction an Especially Nice 1946-1952 MONTAGUE NO.1LPF"LAKE PLEASANT" 9 FT. 3/2 SPLIT BAMBOO FLY ROD WITH THE ORIGINAL LABELED BAG, FACTORY LABELED CORK GRIP& FIBER TUBE. A perfect example of a common economy model that becomes rather scarce and desirable when found in this nice of condition. Easily, the finest I've seen of this model. Built by the Montague Rod& Reel Company, sometime shortly after WWII until about 1952. Rodshaft sports a perfect oval"Montague- Lake Pleasant" decal. The grip still carries the original paper"Lake Pleasant" factory label, which is also in perfect condition and rarely found intact on these models. Built with nice Tonkin cane and comes equipped with extra tip section, Tungsten steel snake guides(including stripper) hardened steel tip tops, welted nickel plated ferrules, ... moreNS winding check, standard sliding band reel seat, solid cork half-Wells grip and wound in green/white silk. I'm guessing this is probably a 6 wt. Rod is in solid Very Fine+ condition, showing only very faint wear that seems more storage-related than anything else. Although it looks as though a reel could have possibly been mounted on it at one time, there is simply no evidence that it's ever been fished. Bamboo is perfect, with no splits, cracks or delamination whatsoever. All four sections are the correct equal length and are reasonably straight. Original varnish remains very nice. All wraps are solid and complete. All guides, tip tops, ferrules and winding check are excellent. Ferrules"pop" nicely when separated. Reel seat works perfectly. The solid cork grip is in superb condition which, along with the factory label, look virtually brand new. One would have a very difficult time trying to upgrade this beauty. Put up in the original bag, which is in very nice condition, with no holes or tears whatsoever. Still carries a nearly complete Montague bag label, which is correctly marked for the rod. Although the Lake Pleasant was never originally offered w

This is a Harrocks Ibbotson 9' 2" Liberty" Model Split Bamboo 3-Piece Fly Rod with an extra Tip from an estate in Green Valley. AZ. Needs some TLC but the components are straight and sound. See the above condition statement and the pics below for more details. Note to bidders: Payment is due within two days(48 hours) of the auction's close. Of course. Most bidders pay immediately and their packages go out the same day or the next mail day at the latest. They also get a nice note from me thanking them for their payment and all is"sweetness and light" Then there are those who act as if they disavow any knowledge of their bid or even owning a computer for that matter. They don't answer my emails, they don't respond to invoices and they force me to either cancel the transaction or report the unpaid item. I ... moredon't like these people and prefer that they look elsewhere. The key to a happy transaction is"communication" so if you're having trouble paying. Please email me and we'll try to work something out. Thanks. Bidding starts at $9.95. With" NO RESERVE" This auction lists shipping and handling(if any) When the auction ends. You will receive an invoice for the total amount due. Buyer pays all shipping costs. When possible. Multiple wins will be combined to reduce shipping costs. We ship from zip code 85718 within 2 mail days of cleared payment M-F. To those buyers whose items are being sent USPS Parcel Select: The tracking with Parcel Select is very spotty. Many times the package is not scanned into the system upon pick-up so you may not see any activity in the tracking log. Your item is still on the move but you may not see any activity in tracking until after its delivered. Another USPS Parcel Select peculiarity is that items may be shipped west before they go east! We ship from Tucson and find that Parcel Select items many times go to Bell Gardens, Ca. before being sent to their eastern destinations. I don't know why, USPS doesn't know why. T

Heddon Premiere #115 9'-2 3/4 F Split bamboo Fly Rod
To be honest I do not know anything about fly rods. This fly rod was my grandfathers fishing pole and was given to me after his passing. I've had it stored for more then 15 years in a climate control gun safe. The bamboo is in excellent shape with no cracking or splintering. The cork handle has some minor wear and tear(casual scarring and dings from use)but is in overall excellent condition. I believe there are a few eyes missing but again im not sure it even came with the eyes in those spots. This listing comes with the fly rod and original tube. Unfortunately I do not have the cloth sheath. Also. You can see that the tube has been dinged up and the label is not perfect, but it is still readable. Thank you and enjoy!

SOUTH BEND 24-9 SPLIT BAMBOO FLY FISHING ROD 3/2 with Original BAG
South Bend 24-9 Bamboo Fly Rod. 9' 3 piece 2 tips. Model 24, 9ft) Rated for line HCH or C which equates to a 7 weight line today. I've lawn cast this with 6 and it felt good. It will cast a 5 weight line as well but did feel a little under lined. If you like a fast rod you may actually like it with a 5wt more. All sections are straight and full length. It comes with the original bag but no tube. I'll ship it in a PVC tube. It's in fishable condition as it is with one of the tips. But it does have a couple small issues. One tiptop eye on one of the tip sections was replaced but needs to be replaced again because it had been broken(the bamboo is NOT broken or looks damaged- just the tip top eye) See Pictures. The varnish on the mid section could stand to be stripped and redone. Someone had replaced the snake guide and looks ... morelike they tried to re-varnish that section and didn't let it dry completely or something. See Pictures. You could take this rod out and fish it now with one of the tips but it would also be a good rod to refinish. I actually it bought years ago to do just that but never got around to it and now I need to make room for other rods. Feel free to ask any questions. Thanks for looking.

C.1920-1930 MONTAGUE "Foothills" 9', 3/2 Split Bamboo TRADE Fly Rod w/Bag & Tube
Up for auction a rather nice CIRCA 1920-1930 MONTAGUE"FOOTHILLS" 9 FT. 3/2 SPLIT BAMBOO*TRADE* FLY ROD WITH CLOTH BAG& ALUMINUM TUBE. This was a Trade rod built by Montague for and sold exclusively by Sears, Roebuck& Co. who owned the trademarked"Foothills" brand name of fishing rods. Montague was still supplying Sears with this model at least as late as 1938, but I believe this is an earlier example from roughly 1920 to 1930. It is identical to Montague's Model No.500-1/2 from their regular rod lineup. Foothills" is nicely inked in script on the rodshaft, the only marking on these rods. Built with Calcutta cane and comes equipped with extra tip section, steel stripper, new stainless snake guides, new chromed tip tops, Montague's"waisted" welted ferrules, NPB winding check, standard Montague/Chubb ... moresliding band reel seat, solid cork grip and wound in red silk, with intermediates. Rod is in about Very Good to Fine condition, partially restored to original. Shows moderate overall wear and a few glue lines, but it's ready to enhance one's collection or be put right to work. Bamboo is free of damage, with all four sections the correct equal length and virtually arrow-straight. Varnish, wraps and guides are new and are pristine. Ferrules are also damage-free and still pop when separated. Reel seat works perfectly. Winding check and solid cork grip remain in good condition. The cloth bag, possibly original, hasn't been near as lucky. Shows overall wear and several holes, but still remains solid and serviceable. Put up in a period aluminum tube, which is also in Very Good condition and shows a few dings near the top. Cap twists on tightly and securely. A nice example of an early version of these Trade rods from Sears/Montague that don't often show up for sale. To be sold with a very low starting bid and NO RESERVE. Buyer to pay $18.00 shipping via U.S. Priority Mail, with full insurance and tracking. Payment must be received within 7 days of auction closu

9’ THOS. E. WILSON & Co. Split Bamboo Fly Rod 3/2
Up for bid a beautiful 9’ THOS. E. WILSON& Co. Split Bamboo Fly Rod 3/2. All 4 sections are full length. One tip seems a bit heavier to me. I bought a couple of Bamboo rods at an auction recently in Buzzards Bay Mass. This is one of them. It seems to me that the rod guide wraps have been recently varnished. It comes with its original Rod Bag. But no tube. I believe there would have been a small tube for the tips which would have gone inside the rod bag, I don’t have it. The rod itself is very beautiful with its multiple orange wraps. The rod will be securely shipped…no worries. Please ask any questions you may have before bidding. S&H in the lower 48 will be $12.50. All others will need to be calculated depending on where it will be shipped. If interested outside of the lower 48 just let me know before you bid and I’ll gladly send ... morea quote for the shipping cost. Thanks for checking out my auction and good luck. And I have a few other items up for sale. Check them out. International friends are welcome to bid on this auction with the following understandings: International payment must be in U.S. dollars by PayPal only.

Rebuilt Vtg South Bend 164 HDH Cross Split Bamboo Fly Rod 5 wt 3/2 9 ft. Fishing
From an estate with a LOT of NEW OLD STOCK fishing stuff.reels and rods mostly. See my other items over the next couple of days. I will combine shipping to save you money. If you buy more than 1 item I will pack them up and refund the difference on shipping. This is a fantastic 1930's 9 foot South Bend bamboo fly rod with the original case. This custom built rod has 4 pieces. 2 tips. I am 90% certain that this is a rare model 164, double built, with D or HDH line recommended. In 1934 this rod retailed for a whopping $60. During the depression. That is over $1000 in today's dollars. It appears that it was rebuilt a while ago-as I know the person who fished this. And he did not fish much since the mid 1990's.so the rebuild is probably 20 years old. He was a very wealthy man, who only wanted the best, so I imagine he paid a pretty ... morepenny to have this rod redone. It does not look like it was fished much afterwards. The rod has a nice matte finish to it. Both end tips are the same length. The bamboo has wonderful grain(see close up) and the workmanship in the rebuild is wonderful.in fact I counted 100+ functional and ornamental wraps on it. The ferrules are nice and tight and give a good pop when released. In the rebuild. The info on the rod was lost. However you can make out much of it on the deteriorating label-the weight is either a 5 or 5.5.maybe even 5.8?it is hard for me to make out. Also, I can see 64 in the model number that is still visible, and the paper is still somewhat in tact after the 4, so I would assume this was the 164 fly rod. It does not appear that a 0 was in the model number after the 164. This rare double built rod is the grand-daddy of all South Bend fly rods. It is ready to enjoy and fish.

*Spectacular* 1951-1952 HEDDON No.8 9', 3/2 Split Bamboo Fly Rod With ORIGINAL
It's my pleasure to offer at auction an Absolutely Spectacular. Unused 1951-1952 HEDDON No.8"HEDDON FLY ROD" 9 FT. 3/2 SPLIT BAMBOO FLY ROD WITH THE ORIGINAL LABELED BAG& ORIGINAL MARKED FIBER TUBE. Fly rods in this condition rarely come up for sale on eBay and this one is, without question, the finest example of this model I've ever seen. Introduced by James Heddon's Sons in 1951, the No.8 would only sell through the 1952 season, when the Korean War Trade Embargo would effectively put an end to virtually all of Heddon's bamboo rod production. The model name was simply called the"Heddon Fly Rod" in catalogs. I've added a photo of the original listing from Heddon's 1952 edition. Heddon's Cleo Hanley has handwritten"Heddon" in straightline on one flat and"8- 9' 2-1/2F- HCH ... moreor D" on the opposite flat. The No.2-1/2 ferrule would be what Heddon termed their"Bass/Trout" action, a very versatile all-around rod. The"HCH or D" was the old line weight designation equivalent to today's modern 6 or 7 wt. lines. Built with very nice browntone Tonkin cane and comes equipped with extra tip section, Perfection guides& tip tops, serrated& welted nickel silver ferrules, nickel silver winding check, plastic grip check& butt cap, screw-locking mottled brown plastic reel seat, solid cork grip and wound in what appears to be gold& black jasper silk. Rod is in absolutely incredible, all-original unused condition. Because one tip top has been reset, resulting in just a 1/4" difference in length, I'm rating this as"Unused Extra Fine+" and let it go at that. Bamboo is perfect. All four sections are arrow-straight. Original varnish, rodshaft markings and wraps are pristine, as one would expect. All guides, tip tops, winding check and grip check are excellent. Reel seat works perfectly, with beautiful hardware. The solid cork grip is superb and still has the velvety feel of new cork. Put up in the original c

Rare very early 9 ft. Southbend 3/2 split bamboo fly rod
Here for your consideration is this very early and remarkably historic 9' 3/2 that was most likely built at Winchester while E. Billy Edwards was overseeing the rod operation there in 1920 or so. Cane tip case w/ brass cap& original bag all metal knurled reel seat, red intermediate& regular guides wraps throughout, half-wells grip, VG+ Exc. original varnish, truly amazing cond. bright and sparkling probably unused. So early even its stripping guide is a snake guide. Winchester supplied South Bend with rods into 1926. This rod was listed by Martin J. Keane in his catalog#83-2001. At that time he wasn't aware of the connection with Winchester. In fact inside the top of the bag are the numbers 5361 numbers were used by Winchester re branded Barney& Berry rods per Garner in his book also 7000 series rods were Armax and Barney& ... moreBerry rods(again per Gardner) so it would be reasonable to see how South Bend was given a 5000 series of rods to differentiate how the rods were finished. Ie What bamboo was acceptable to one company as a trade rod may not be so for another.

Up for auction a Very Nice and Quite Desirable CIRCA 1910-1920 MONTAGUE CITY ROD CO. 9 FT. 3/2 SPLIT BAMBOO"FEATHERWEIGHT" FLY ROD WITH THE ORIGINAL WOOD FORM HOLDER. One of a series of light action"featherweight" fly rods produced by Montague City Rod Co. throughout the first quarter of the last century.

Rod is in about Fine to Very Fine condition, showing moderate overall wear associated with normal use. Appears all-original, except for the butt ferrule being a Montague replacement. Bamboo is very nice, with no splits, cracks or delamination whatsoever. All four sections are the correct equal length, with one tip having a moderate set.
