I received this a while back for helping a buddy move. He said he got it while stationed in Italy and that is all he knows about it. I've been told it's a crappie rod from most people around here (Hampton roads) but had another navy friend say they use them for carp over there. He said the writing may be Korean. It seems to me to be an underspin casting rod. It extends to a little over 11ft and is VERY soft. Was thinking about putting a little 1 or 2000 reel on there once I figure out what it is.

YES, that is definitely what it is, thanks! Do you know what type of reel it requires?? I don't have any baitcasters but do have this smallish Daiwa enclosed, think it'll work??

No i dont know, but a looking at the guides it appears a little spinner would probably be best.
there is a cool new website www.google.com that should be a big help in your quest for info. I used it to find the above info in like 5 minutes.

Dave may be along shortly with 5 web links, 3 youtube videos, and a Tinder profile of some korean chick holding one.

All the guides are the same size, which is why I thought a baitcaster would be best. I'll have to check out this "google.com", I sure didn't try and try and try to find out what it was on there before posting here...... (sarcasm). The last time I searched for it I used "Chinese/Japanese telescopinbg carbon rod" bc I hadn't heard the Korean suggestion yet. And while I did find a few sites with similar pics, none were in English or able to be translated by Google. And nothing showed a picture with a reel mounted on. I was really looking to see what reel would best fit it and what type of rigs/bait to use with it. Looking forward to seeing Dave's Korean chicks though.

the writing on the rod is definitely not korean.

rod itself could still be korean, i guess.

Definitely a Dickfer

It comes from an old Korean folklore tale...............starts out with a Sheep asking the Farmer..."So what is the Dickfer?"
