Hi Lazoman
I have the one on the left. It was my grandfathers. I use it all the time. I found it in an old collapse shed on my grandma’s property years ago. My grandfather ran a fish camp at little river when my mom was young. He unfortunately passed away when she was in high school so I never got to meet him. I fixed the reel up and have been using it for the past 15 years or so, it is a little out of round but I can usually get it back. There were some old cane rods in the shed but they were too far gone to salvage. I would love to have that one if you are willing to part with it. My son who is eight would like to try fly fishing and it would great to get him one like mine. He also loves the vintage stuff. One of the vintage lure resellers down in Victoria gave him a really old fishing lure at a swap meet and told him to start collecting so now he is really interested in the old stuff. Not sure what I have that you would like to trade for any suggestions?
Thanks
Angus
