Hi
Does anybody know where you can buy Rich Make Rods or anyone who makes custom rods?
I have a few old Richmake rods - 2 fly rods, a drift rod and possibly a spinning rod laying around that I might be willing to part with for reasonable $.

I have 12ft spinning rod bamboo made by Rick-make in absolute Paramont condition #1084 I believe its fairly old 1950s 1960s the flexion this rod is beautiful. Never known rods to be so light but stand its ground with monster fish, Ive used this jigging, or just big baited hooks 4 ft off bottom from the sinker set up on three way swivel....I'm on Vancouver Island I've gotten big Dogfish, 5ft Blue Shark, many a big lings, big vermillion, and also coho anc Chinook trolling......not a scratch on this rod not a single speck of rust all eyelids solidly mounted and glued.... $400....I've never ever seen another one of these in my life I'm 42, unfortunately I'm very crippled up now from osteoarthritis going in for knee replacement surgery July 19th 2024 then ill have surgery on both feet and cause of my feet and legs giving out caused scoliosis which they will operate on my spine too....my fishing days I think as I know it are soon to be over. I'm lucky to have just a couple friends who've been taking me out on their boats since I had to sell mine....as much as I'd love to keep this rod but if someone has a love for the time and effort and flawless making of these treasure rods I'm willing to part with it.... Its brought me lots of memories and its got another couple hundred years of more memories to be made.
