Hey guys,
               while looking through a book tonight I found an article
which contained a taper for a Penta rod that I believe might have been
written by Claude M Kreider?
It is supposed to be a strong 5 sided rod at 8'0" It doesn't say what wt
it is for but the ferrule is a 14/64 so I'm going to guess that it is
for a 5 or 6 wt allowing for the larger ferrule of a 5 sider(???)
                  I'll post it here and maybe someone will recognize the
taper and be able to give us some info on the rod. The taper is on
6"stations.

30     .295                 .140
36     .275                 .120
42     .250                 .095
48     .235                 .075

Hopefully this rings a bell with someone out there. Enjoy,

Shawn
