wrote: My grandfather left me an 8 1/2 foot bamboo rod by "James Heddon's Sons, Dowagiac, Michigan, Makers of fine bamboo and steel rods". Is this a known brand, or just some importer? It's more a keepsake than sporting equipment, but I'm interested in knowing anyway. Heddon made rods as late at the early 50s but are now out of business. Your rod could be worth anything from $200 to $1500. Do a Google on it. There are lots of antique rod buyers/sellers out there. If i were you, I would refurbish it (if necessary) and fish it. Dave
