Fenwick has a legacy going back many years. I am curiuos though, what was the length of the rod? What is it rated for? (oz.) Is it spinning or conventional? And what type of reel do you plan to use with it.

thats why they call it fishing not catching

I've got a couple of Fenwick rods, including a custom 12' rod that #^&#^&#^&#^&y had made for himself in the early 70's. They are awesome rods!

Its 11.5' spinning and im not sure what its rated. Its a black two peice blank and it didnt appear to have any writing or stamp that i could find to indicate what model it is, i also didnt think to ask because i was too excited. Im not sure what im going to use for a reel, my one thought is to track down an older penn but ive never used one. any suggestions

It would be raining soup, and id be be standing outside with a fork

Going old school lines wise...
Penn models
704 or 706

Mitchell the big 300s

Crack/ luxor 300

Daiwa made some reels that looked like the 704s also..
