Looking for a Panfish Special. I know I probably won't find one but I think I would rather have the 7' model but will also consider the 6'6"
as well. I don't really want a beater but I don't want anything pristine either. It will be fished quite a bit.

Andy's redo was a W&M panfish spinning rod. I have a W&M panfish flyrod but it is not for sale. CSJ are you looking for a W&M or a Shakespeare? Pearow What did you pay for yours? How about some photos. Eagleman |

well, Eagle is right; I got confused i guess; i got the quad rod panfish special; different from the Shakespear panfish special; I was fooled because mine had
the green reelseat so i thought it was a shakespeare; my mistake.
Eagleman, this rod 's insignia says,"panfish fly rod PF-7'for HDH or D lines;(printed in red on green translucent blank) green reelseat downlocking; 5 guides, metal ferrule, red,green and yellow bands for guide wraps; i paid $15 bucks for it and an old shakespeare auto reel on ebay; I was thinking at the time it was a panfish special by shakespeare; so I dont know much about rod collecting. we are rod whores for sure chris!!-p- |

I have a 7ft Professional Wonderod that I would be interested in selling. It does have one problem that needs attending to on the grip. The leading edge where my thumb would be developed a crack and needs gluing. I need to shoot photos as I don't have any. |

I couldnt pull that up, but its exactly like the one you posted in february entitled 3 W&M rods; the one with the red writing is exactly like the one I
have. Can't wait to fish the big brim on Lake Athens with it-p-

I really like the looks of that W&M panfish rod. I didn't even know about that model but one of those would be cool too. Sure you don't want to et
rid of it???
Jeffsod, shoot some pics and let me know what you would want for it. Also what size line do you throw on that one? |
