Thank you for sharing this one, it's if I was there myself. 
What kind of bait did you use? and are these old splitcane carp / pike rods available in the UK (secondhand offcoarse  ) because I have a nice old bakelite Allcock Aerialite centrepin reel which is longing for a matching vintage rod.
Take care,
RB

Good luck to you Longtail, and if you want to get "liberated" from your own cane, you know who's looking for one... 
Take care,

nice looking rod there, sadly fishing is one of the only country sports i just havnt ever realy enjoyed. my old man tryed really hard to teach me when i was a lad, but just didnt have the interest.
