Sold: Bruce & Walker Powerlite 15ft #10-12 Salmon fly rod

[JockStalk]

Handmade. Three piece, very lightly used in immaculate condition. Beautiful big river Spey casting rod in very good condition. Comes in B&W Rod bag and will be well packed in a tube/ insured post.
It’s quite hard to capture a 15’ salmon rod in photos / let me know by PM if anything specifically you need to see.
Just checked - cost me £870 (don’t tell the Mrs) selling for £200 posted. Happy to answer any questions and open to sensible offers by PM.

I’d love that, especially being made in England, but since I only get out after salmon a couple of times a year I can’t justify another rod, I am somewhat ashamed to say I’m awaiting delivery a spey rod from China - £54 delivered. I hate buying Chinese but the price and some of the feedback I’ve read on them just works for my situation. Good luck with the sale.

You can always justify another rod

Wow - I’ve got a B&W trout rod I bought up in Perth in the 90s and must have used only once or twice. Must dig it out as it surely deserves a better home.

They are beautiful rods. And still handmade in the uk!

Bruse & Walker a name synonymous with fine quality rods. £870? Everything is relative.

Needs taking to the river

Sadly old rods get dated pretty quickly as lines and action tastes change. I still swing a couple of classic brownie sages from the early nineties… still hard to find and desirable but most old carbon rods are worth very little…. Tempus fugit

A new home has been found. The salmon had better watch out!

Best made fly rods in the world bar none IMHO, I have four B&W rods they are wonderfully built tough as nails and cast a dream.

The new owner sure got a bargain.
