Hardy “The Murdoch” Bamboo Rod -- ‘For Salmon, Mahseer, Pike etc.’ Gary Howells The on/off click switch worksFor sale here is the Hardy "The No. 3 L R H Spinning Rod". A Hardy 9' 6" double handed spinning rod, the No. 3 is the heaviest of the options. Studlock joints and Agitipe rings. A nice find was the spanner which is still in the rod bag pocket. There is a slight rip in the alloy of the butt cap and the whippings of the 2 sections don't match but the Studlock joint fits correctly. This rod will ship from the UK.
