I know this sounds strange, but vintage equipment like fiberglass rods still have a place! We can talk shop and discuss why some vintage gear is just as good (if not better) than the new stuff.
I have 2 fiberglass Fenwicks that are a blast to use.My first is the 5' FS50 2pc with the sliding ringgs on the handle.i bought that in 1983.I also have another Fenwick 2 pc 5'3" with foam grips and aluminum real seat.I recently got that one off Ebay.I'm thinking of buying an eagle claw 2 pc 5'6" soon.I found a couple for around $12.00.
Howdy all, I just happened across a bunch of old fishing gear from my grandfather. I'm still in nagotiations to accure it all :p It's been up in the rafters for MANY years and don't know the full conditions of the poles yet. I do know there is at least 1 older fly rod and reel. One thing I'll need to know is about repairs should they need some attention. What should I be looking for?
