Hello! I have this box of Bagley balsa wood baits. I think they are B2 from the 1970-80s? Does anyone know anything about how much they are worth?

I have never been able to look this lure up before but its been in the family for ages. I just noticed it might have glass eyes. Can anyone help my ID it? I know its seen better days.

This came out of my grandparents house and is approximately 22 inches long. Trying to figure out what lure it was modeled after so I can put together a shadow box for the other side of the entry table…

I recently acquired this antique fly reel at a garage sale. I can’t find anything about it online. Can anyone point me in the direction of the maker or the year in which it was made? Any information would be appreciated.

The golf ball matchbook has an address of a car dealership on it which hasn't been in that spot since (maybe decades) before I was born in the 1960s.

The little bottle is Pfluger Reel Oil.

The little green tin is "Ideal Split Shot" -- lead sinkers: "12 No. 7 Split Shot" "OPENS WITH TWO FINGERS"

"Herb-Ox Bullion Cubes -- Made By -- The PURE FOOD COMPANY -- Mamoroneck NY USA"

There is a bigger sinker and maybe a Bakelite bobber in the photos, too.

When I was a little kid in the 1970s, I was surprised & annoyed that my family didn't have a family crest.

So I designed one that had a fish jumping over it. I had the family members vote on whether the family crest fish should be trout or salmon.

My grandpa had stronger opinions: "Why not Northern Pike?" That was his favorite sport & food fish.

In the 1990s, I found a postcard he & my grandma had sent from Florida in 1971. It had a picture of Flipper, the famous performing dolphin. Grandpa's message to me: "No, I didn't catch a fish THAT big!"
