Spinning or conventional? What weights will he throw?

Spinning. 1-4 oz rating or in the ball park

I have a spinning 1 piece, Honey Lami, cork handles wrapped by the late Dave Hammock at Murats in the 80s. Been sitting for 20 years in the basement. Perfect condition. It might be a little stiff for 1 oz stuff but will certainly throw 2 to 4 perfectly. This is and "old guard" type rod. $125.00 firm. I have to go to CMS tomorrow and will be in your area if you want to look at it.

I still have this sitting in the rod rack. I'll let it go for $100 if you are interested and can figure out a way to get it from me in either RI or CT.

Not sure what "braid friendly" means. They are almost new. Old guard I mean cork handles. Not cork wrap, or shrink wrap. Old fashioned cork rings. If I have a chance, I'll post a picture

thanks to me braid friendly means , I 've used a rod with braid and the braid sawed through the tip it was an old rod though.
thanks ML Sr

Change the tip maybe??

The rod has ceramic guides. It was made in the 80s not in prehistoric times.:smash:

Yup, that's it Kev. It actually is a really nice rod. I had forgotten about it and found it in a corner with 5 or 6 other Murat rods including an 11' E or S (brown) glass wrapped by the master himself Charlie Murat. he died in 71 so this rod is probably 45 years old. I will not sell that rod.
