velvet/wooden holder 100%; Original Rod sack, well used.
I believe this is either an early Fred Devine or later Thomas Chubb (Montague) rod, refinished, The male ferrule and reel seat seems to match other Devine rods, but Chubb patented this reelseat and it was adopted by many makers by 1900. (ref. Classic Rods and Rodmakers/ Keane pg. 130/131).the female ferrule and winding check I can't reference.(If so...meone can better identify this rod I'd appreciate it).Rod has trumpet ferrules with one heavy duty tip.Both tips are straight.Rod is in great shape with no marks or defects.
Tight Lines!
