I am going to be selling my father's old fishing rods, reels and need help figuring out prices, and if I should take the old line off. These are at least 40 years old. Probably 50 or more. I know I have had them about 25 years and I know he had them for years before his stroke made him stop fishing.
Since the old braided nylon line has been on there most of that time I think it should be taken off before trying to sell, do you guys agree?
Next I know these older vintage Penn reels sell in the $40 to $80 range. The small one is a Penn Peerless No9, the other I need to get a chance to read later. I have no idea on the rods. The 6ft is an old Otasco Black Knight and the 5.5ft is a Grantsport 500DCTT.F.
Any help or advice would be welcome. As usual my photos suck.
