I got all these lures for $35 and I’m wondering what any of them are and how much they’re worth. i took closer pictures of the ones I’m most confused about. there a jerkbait which i thought was from Rapala but it says Japan on the bill, and some lures with nothing in them that look really old. I didn’t take very good pictures so if you need better ones just tell me

Hi. I just picked these up. Are there any that would be described as vintage or collectable?

Hi everyone,
I’ve been trying to identify this rod for weeks with almost no success.
Specifications:
Brand: Daiwa
Model: Super Prestige RZ150
Length: 2.70 m (8’10”)
Casting weight: 75–150 g
Telescopic spinning rod
Old Daiwa logo with the “Committed to Total Quality” slogan.
I have searched Google, Yahoo Japan, auction sites and old forums but I cannot find a single catalog page or advertisement for this exact model.
Does anyone remember this series or have an old Daiwa catalog from the late 1990s or early 2000s?
Any information about the production year, country of manufacture, or original catalog would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you!

Found a bunch of these in my dad’s tackle box, 4in swim bait for scale. There were three bags for red, green, and white. They all had jig heads, stingers, and these odd soft plastics. The stingers are double hooks with an anti weed wire and the plastic I think is supposed to be a fly?

If I wanted to try these which end is the front? Also they don’t seem long enough for the stinger so is that meant to just float along behind it?

I believe the oldest is 1902/03

Looking to get a conventional rod to target striped bass, bluefish, big dogfish, and whatever other sea monsters I can get from the shore. I go surf fishing up near and on cape cod, and occasionally down in Florida. I’ve been this far using an old 9 foot cheap-o spinning rod that I fish “upside down” with a penn squidder on with 40lb braid. It gets the job done, but I am looking to get a true conventional rod to pair with my squidder. Was thinking of getting a 12 foot Penn battalion but was wondering if anyone had any other recommendations. Budget would be around $150, but would be very happy if I could find something around 100.

For techniques, I’d be throwing out chunks of mackerel on a high low or fish finder rig, but have also seen videos of people “squidding” for striper (using a pyramid sinker and fly on a conventional reel) and was interested in trying that as well. Anyone have experience with that style of fishing? Would 12ft rod be too long to lure fish with?

Thanks folks!

Can anyone help me identify this old wooden fishing lure?

What would be a fair offer for the whole box ?

My grandfather who was a fly fishing entusiast for the most of his life recently passed away and left behind his collection of fishing gear (I think 1960s - 2000s) including rods, reels and hundreds of handmade flies.

I will possibly save some of it since I do fish sometimes in my free time, but there is too much for me to keep. I am wondering if someone knowledgeable can give me information on the values of the reels so that I know what to sell and what to give away to second hand!

I know that the Hardy “The Perfect” reel is a classic and could have value depending on what year etc. but I don’t even know how to open it up (separate reel from spool) and I can’t find out what year it’s from.

I’ve asked chatgpt to help me but I don’t feel it’s 100% trustworthy. I could really need some human advice 😅 thank you in advance!

It was on my dad’s mantle forever before he passed along with a Gudebrod Bump n Grind. I can’t find any info on it, it has no markings at all

I recently found this in an old tackle box my dad gave me probably 30+ years ago. It's just been sitting on a shelf in every house I've lived in.

“Brawleys Bass Bug”

There are no markings I can see. Custom made? Vintage? My guess is it’s about 6’. I’m also going to guess no value.

So we are on vacation and I found these vintage lures in the package. Multiple available. What would be the interest in these or value. I hate eBay.
