My buddy showed me a Fenwick HMG Graphite 4 WT. fly rod he bought about 30 years ago. He never used it and it's new. I cast it in the yard and it really feels great. Can these be found any more? The numbers on the rod are: HMG 4 WtT. GFF 704-2, 2 1/2oz., AFPMA Line No. 4. Is there a blank similar to this old model? Re: HMG Fenwick Graphite Rod

Fenwick ceased to operate as a sole entity in the early to mid 1990's. They have been a part of a larger holding group since that time and have not offered blanks for sale.
The original HMG series (grey) and later (burgundy-brown) were excellent blanks and still make fine fishing rods. If you can find them, that is. ............. Re: HMG Fenwick Graphite Rod

I have one that is about 40 or so years old that I broke during my move this winter.....If you are interested I might like to take it off your hands. Sorry, only registered users may post in this forum.
