Chapman Dennis Pye 700 Cane Pike Rod

his is a 3-piece split cane rod made by Chapman, one of the premier UK manufacturers of cane rods. It is named after Dennis Pye who was always in the press in the 1970's for his prodigious pike captures. The rod is three pieces, a detachable butt section which is basically the handle, and tow other cane sections. As one would imagine, the rod is of powerful construction for playing big fish and bait casting. The rod is in really nice condition and is still in its original bag
