Graham Phillips Pikemaster 4 Piece 12ft Carp Pike Rods. Travel Rods

A pair of Graham Phillips Pike master 4 piece carp/pike rods in used condition. Some age related marks but a good clean will improve them significantly. Pikemaster 1 - 2 1/2lb tc Pikemaster 3 - 2 1/4lb tc Fuji reel seats30mm but ring, 7 x 3 leg intermediate and tip. 4 piece - 99cm/39inch sections. Graham Phillips rods was originally owned by Paul Boote ( Somewhere down the Crazy River book fame ) in the early 1990s then taken on by Nicholas Whipp. Both very good rod builders. They built bespoke, high end, Carp, Pike and specialist rods to order. All rods were built on Century or Northwestern blanks ( not sure which these are ). I had these built for me in the 1990s for a carp trip in France ( smaller water ) and then went on to use them on the Norfolk Broads and Kent lakes. They are more powerful than their test curve suggests and the spigots stiffen them up a bit so they are more like a modern rod than their test curve suggests and not the ‘all through’ action of their time. Perfect travel rods obviously as they break down to a meter in length. The sections are equal length so can be broken down into 2 or 4 sections. Great pike rods and very decent carp rods. Can be stored in the boot of your car. Also good for those places where ( ahem ) you want to keep a low profile….UK mainland only postage.
