Does anyone have a taper for an E.C. Powell 9' 3 piece 4 wt? If so would you please post it. (Jon Holland)

I found a Powell 3 piece rod that looks like a 4 wt in the Herter's Tapers on Reed Curry's site

The original should look like this with adjustments made for under ferrules and tips etc. given in 6" settings

Station Dimension 0 .399 6 .399 12 .377 18 .363 24 .338 30 .314 36 .295 42 .275 48 .262 54 .245 60 .212 66 .197 72 .168 78 .161 86 .147 90 .122 96 .106 102 .086 108 .057

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Converting it to normal 5" setting should look like this:

Station Dimension 0 .057 5 .081 10 .099 15 .114 20 .130 25 .149 30 .161 35 .167 40 .187 45 .205 50 .223 55 .248 60 .262 65 .273 70 .288 75 .305 80 .322 85 .342 90 .363 95 .375 100 .392 105 .399 108 .399
