Shakespeare Tackle Company
Shakespeare was the other originator of fiberglass flyrods. For years they sold the Wonderod line.
This page has three sections: Shakespeare Rod Date Codes, Shakespeare Recommended Line Equivalents, and Shakespeare Glass Fly Rod Models.
Shakespeare Rod Date Codes
Most Shakespeare glass rods were marked with a three-letter code indicating the date of manufacture. This date code was either stenciled on the blank near the model identification number, or stamped on the reel seat. The first two letters in the code indicate the year while the third letter indicates the month.
Each of the first two letters is translated to a numerical digit per the following table:

These two digits, when prefixed with '19', indicate the year of manufacture. For example, from the date code 'EJF', we take the first two letters 'EJ' and translate these to '62' using the preceding table. This results in the year '1962'.
The third letter in the date code indicates the month, per the following table:
Date code key part 2: letters to month

Continuing with the previous example of date code EJF, the letter 'F' from this table gives us 'May' as the month. Therefore the complete translation of date code EJF is 'May 1962'.
Shakespeare Recommended Line Equivalents
The following table, extracted from the 1961 Shakespeare catalog, lists the AFTMA line weights that are considered equivalent to the older-style letter designations:

The information listed in the preceding table was extracted from various Shakespeare catalogs. The translation of line weights to AFTMA equivalents is as suggested in the catalogs.
Shakespeare Glass Fly Rod Models
The following list of fiberglass fly rod models is by no means complete. There were more than 350 glass fly rod models! It will be updated as time permits. (Model numbers are listed in alpha-numerical order.)
