Ex rare Farlow Le “Voyageur” combination split cane travel rod making 4’10 ,6’10 & 8’
Extremely rare Farlow Le “Voyageur” combination split cane travel rod, very similar to the Hardy Traveller, built 1957-63 and although we can't find any ref to our rod in all of our Farlow catalogues, I feel its from the same era.
Makes an ideal for spinning, worming or light touch ledgering rod, comprising of 5 split cane sections each measuring 24” long, plus a 10” cork handle which is reversible, built with ferrules and stoppers to either end, this allows a variety of combination rod lengths being 4’10”, 6’ 10” and 8’ 10”, the rod is in superb condition, factory original throughout, bronze rolled ferrules with turned rosewood and cork stoppers, including one either end of the cork handle, low bridge guides throughout, the rod has seen very little if any use, I’ve not seen another, this has to be one of the finest Farlow collectable rods, still can be fished today, comes with maker’s correct fitted cloth bag
