Default I love Elsies too

And three pc. two tip Lyle Dickerson rods-- I have LC 12 gauge parts, sometimes barrels-- It is unusal to see a Dickerson or a Paul Young rod, whether a 2 pc. or the 3 pc. as your friend has- delaminate as you described-- Some years ago, when I fished- I was staying at Rusty Gate's Lodge on the "Holy Water" and using two "pet" 7 & 1/2 foot "Steinways" a pre-fire Leonard 3/2 49 and also a Paul Young Perfectionist- Both rods responded well to my casting style with a Hardy LRH with a Wulff 4/5 TT line- 6X and 18-20 size flies tied by Rusty-

He took me and another friend down to the Mason tract- and his friend had a 7 & 1/2 ft 2/2 Dickerson 5 wt--we traded rods that afternoon, he loved my Leonard and I wanted a Dickerson like his-- Rusty, as usual, was fishing his old 9ft. 5 wt. Orvis graphite--we stayed until dusk and caught a nice spinner fall- and unlike the Main branch, that section of the Mason Tract (at least 20 years ago) saw few canoes- aka- "The Grumman Hatch"
