For sale here is a very nice example of Hardy's "hollow built" split cane trout rod - the Hollokona "Hollolight". Three sections with one tip. The rod is in excellent condition. The male ferrule silks on the mid-section were re-wrapped by South Creek Ltd. Light colored cane with gold silks, black tips and full intermediate wraps all in excellent condition. Gold anodized sliding ring and 'W' fitting and alloy stoppers. Cigar shaped cork grip in great condition. Serial number H32950 made in 1960. The rod has medium-fast dry fly action for a 5 weight although it would be comfortable with a 6 as well. The rod weighs 4 3/8 oz. The ferrule sizes are 12/64 and 17/64 with original ferrule plugs. Great ferrule fit. Comes with its original canvas bag and no tube. Nice all-around trout rod!

Your shipping estimate will be calculated at checkout and if you have any questions please contact us. Please note the buyers are responsible for any applicable import duties or fees that may levied. Due to the importance of packing items carefully please allow up to two weeks for arrival (depending on how busy we are) though we certainly do our best to get items to you as expeditiously as possible.
