    Default Old poles


    Hi
    Does anyone in Indiana buy old fishing poles from the late 1950's? I found several of my dad's old cane poles and bait casting reels on fiberglass poles that I MIGHT consider selling, old lures too.
    Thanks

    I'd check online .... under "antique fishing lures/reels/poles" and make sure you're not selling these things for pennies on the dollar. Collectors & collector sellers would have prices listed on their websites.

    And just a FYI note .... I've seen where the original "boxes" that these lures & reels came in, have sold for more $$ than what the antique lure or reel is worth

    ... cp

    You are correct on the boxes. I work a lot of auctions and I see that all of the time. If you are willing to sell any of the items shot me a PM. I have a lot of friends that buy the old stuff.
