Hi, new to the group and was hoping someone could give me some advice on a fly rod i have, it's a split cane rod made by Foster, it has "The Dual" written on both rod butts, I think it maybe from the 1960's, it has two butts, one middle section and one end section, i believe the butts are interchangeable to alter the length of the rod.
Is it a collectable rod? has it any value? it's in pretty good condition
Thanks

#2Fosters rods have no real value , I would either fish it or use it as a wall decoration.

#3Ahh ok, that's a shame, it's in great condition, i'm into coarse fishing so it may just end up as a decoration.

#5Dear Tinman, I collect & use Fosters rods so rather then the Dual being just for decoration I would be pleased to purchase it form you.

#6That Foster cane rods are of no real value is nonsens. They are less known than some famous makers rods but the quality of workmanship and the very fine finish are first-class. They are underestimated and on auction go cheaper than Hardys and Pezon rods. Keep it and enjoy it fishing and to look at.
