Heddon taper info without attachment (long) - Canerods

All,

Here's a repeat of my 8' Heddon 1-3/4F info - some systems can't read
attachements, my CMIX can't send long posts. I love computers, I love ......


I'll post a second taper based upon the averages of the below info.

PS - Budding builders should take a look at the +/- variations and take heart.

Notes:

1) Several tips were broken at the ferrule and therefore some info blank
2) Rod #3 is a butt section only
3) All rods were stripped of their varnish
4) Swelled butt increases to equal or greater than 0.400 under the grip.
