TT opinion:
Cambrian Fly Fishers of Wales 8’ 2-piece split cane trout fly rod, line rate #5. Burgundy close whipped Fuji lined guides, bronze ferrule, alloy stopper, keeper ring, 7” shaped cork handle (a couple of minor chips) & up screw reel fitting. Good pre-owned example, ready to fish using either dry or wet fly, ideal for river or Stillwater. It comes in the maker’s original bag. Based in  Llangollen in North Wales, the Cambrian Fly Fishers brand was all about quality. The 1977 catalogue extracts show the top-of-the-line clothing field sport range they stocked, very smart!
