For sale here is a Hardy Palakona "CC de France" 8' 5wt 3/2 bamboo fly rod made in 1927. Serial no. E60312. The rod is in excellent refinished condition. All sections are full length and straight.

U-shaped hook keeper. Half wells grip only lightly soiled (thanks Lars!). Bright aluminum cap and ring reel seat with a cork spacer. Ferrule sizes 11/64 and 16/64, the fit is very nice. Bright aluminum sculpted ferrule plug for the mid section, the butt section ferrule plug is not present. The rod weighs 4.30 oz. The action is more on the medium side of medium-fast, perfect all-around balanced rod action. Includes presumably the original rod bag with very interesting camouflage print and pocket for ferrule plug when not in use, and original tube.
