I know nothing about fly fishing but have inherited some old cane fishing
rods. Can anyone advise me how to find out if they have any value? I'm told old cane fishing rods may be worth something. Thanks for any useful advice. Regards JP |

Thanks for any useful advice. See if there's a recognisable maker's name and model. If so, search eBay for something similar. If not, it's probably not worth a great deal. Condition (straightness, original, varnish, eyes, handle, etc) is important. -- Nogood Boyo |
