Ron It wasn't really the Ghost we were referring to but to glass rods in general which were soft and having little backbone.
The term was in fact "Golden Wonder Pea Pole" and was conjured up by John McLelland who's favourite rod on the big waters was a made up version of a Hardy Wye. My first rod for fishing the lead proper, was an ABU Laplandia 541, single handed Salmon rod, I still have the rod but not the strength to use the beast. There were not the rods about in those days as today. It improved with the N.W. blanks being used.
