The "Mayer" Minnow Casting and^ Trolling Rod. 



This rod is made from specifications famished by Professor Alfred M. Mayer, who with this rod and an Imbrie Black Bass Reel 

 won first prize for black bass casting at the tournament of the National Rod and Reel Association, Oct. 23, 1884. 



Its proportions were i-eached after a long series of experiments, the object of which was to obtain a round section bamboo rod of 

 about 9 ounces that would feel light in the hand, be well balanced, not throw off a delicately mouthed minnow in making long casts, and 

 finally, after striking the bass, would have enough spring and flexibility to afford the angler the same pleasure as that given him when 

 playing a bass on a fly rod. 



The rod has two tips, one 6 inches shorter than the other; the shorter tip is used for trolling and in casting when wading. 

 This rod has been thoroughly tested in both lakes and quick water, and anglers who have used it are unqualified in praises of its 

 staunchness and the delicacy of its action. i 



Our rods have taken the. highest prize at every tournament in which they have been used.
