Have recently purchased a rod (photos attached) but can find no info about it - wondered if anyone could throw some light on it. Its an 11ft "Avon"-style rod, with a detachable butt section making it a 3-section rod. There's a choice of two top sections, the lighter one giving an 11ft rod, the heavier a 10ft. The only info on the rod is the inscription (which appears to be hand-written) "Countrysports 11ft Specimen" and "1 1/4lb" It has an odd plastic band on the handle just above the reel fitting which I've not seen on any other rod and can't think what its there for!
