Appraising an antique fly-fishing rod?

[sydnie7]

Thanks for the clarifications. I knew the handle looked different from the GAs I was seeing online, now memories of my childhood fishing days are coming back ("salmon eggs" and snarled monofilament reels).

Based on Googling, I've sent some info off to Lang's Auctions and we'll see what they have to say.

Thanks again for sharing your expertise!
