Laudle & Rivas Rod, need help getting info about it
My father gave me this rod years ago and I can’t ever find this model. Any idea of its worth or background? Name is “ultimate dry fly” . Has 2 uppers, one that matches numbers then one with the following number.

No expert, not familiar. Classic fly rod forum is where to ask

The rod company was UK based, but don’t know if it is still in business. The company name is actually Caudle & Rivaz. You can probably find additional information at the classic fly rod forum.
It seems to be a quality rod. There are some values in the discussion, but from years ago. My experience has been that bamboo rods have not been appreciating that much since then. I personally (loving bamboo rods) would keep it, treat it right and fish it. Looks awesome and a desireable length and weight for bamboo.
