About the Book

The book is a reference guide to the 175 cane fishing rod collection David Petty has put together over fifty years. Collectors will have a chance to see what is probably the finest range of split-cane coarse fishing rods ever assembled. Petty, one of the world's leading angling collectors, has had his stunning hoard of bamboo photographed by David Watson who has compiled the book entitled One Man One Rod - The Art of Classic Split Cane - A Collection by David Petty as a reference guide. Rods on show include examples by Alcock, Hardy, Ogden Smith, Oliver’s, B. James, Chapman, Milward, Creeke, Gold, Sowerbutts, Antis, Barder and Sealey. He has an Avocet by Sowerbutts - “I’ve only ever seen one other” - and three cane rods by Rodrill, better known for their glass-fibre and carbon. “Not a lot of people know that Rodrill made cane rods, but they turned out a few based on Bob Southwell’s cane”, Petty says. These rods - the Mallard, the Avon and The Dipper - are at least as good as James Avocets”. David says: “When people look at the book and see these rods they will start to appreciate what jewels they really are”. The photographs for One Man One Rod are by David Watson, best known for the pictures in John Drewett's Hardy Brothers, the Masters, the Men, and their Reels. Dave Watson commented: "I have photographed the rods in a way designed to show a full view of the logo, name and address panels, as well as all the individual sections and features of interest. There is an index showing the makers and their rod names so collectors can quickly find rods they have or are seeking. Master rodmaker Edward Barder has written the foreword.
