This calcutta rod (non-shimano) was my grandfathers.He caught lots of YT and albies with it in the 40's and even into the 50's

There is only one guide left on it and the tip.The action isnt as bad as you would think.I was considering restoring it,but I think it will just make a great gaff one day.
