As far as Boomers heading for the exits, Elvis left the building in 1977. I bought and sold Leonard rods decades ago with 2 of them sold to the same dealer for more than I originally paid him. As for Heddon rods, three years ago I found this 9' 3/2 Heddon, rebadged for Manufrance with the original bag with the Heddon tag and script on the rod. It's a 6 wgt and other than fading metal work, is in great shape. I found it on French ebay searching for reloading tools. The rod was a bargain at $175, The other rod depicted is one I made in 2018 at a Bill Oyster week's long class. I am working on another presently in my home. Mid July I fished the split cane rod I made 6 out of the 8 days I fished in the Yellowstone area. The grayling is my first grayling. The stick handled numerous cutties, cutbows and rainbows up to 19" during the trip. It's a 7'9" two piece for 5 wgt. Gil
