Default Wanted Bob Church Loch Style Boron 11'6, 2 RODS REQUIRED.
Looking for one or two Bob Church old boron Loch style rods 11'6.
Only wish to pay a maximum of £20 a piece for these as, I'm going to experiment with them and may break one or both, hence the reason I'm asking for two.
Postage will be a pain, due to the two-piece length. As such , if you fish Draycote, Rutland, or Grafham, we can make arrangements for you to leave them at one of these venues for me to pick-up.
Cheers
Paul

That blank cannot be purchased.I'll be renewing the reel seat too.I may break the blanks when trying to remove the old fittings.

Andy,
You should be able to obtain the blank you're after,around 11 foot, from this guy, he's doing 2wt and 3wt too!

It's the action of that boron rod I've placed the wanted ad for I'm after.

Keep an eye on Ebay for older top quality rods. There was a David Norwich recently - I think a 5/6.
