It turns out my sister who lost her husband over 20 years ago has kept his old fishing tackle . It must be at least 30 to 40 years old. There are some rods , reels and other bits and pieces. I have no idea about the rods but she has given me details of 3 of his old reels. These are;
Mitchell 1120G
Diawa Auto 1657M?
Silstar x40.
Does anyone know anything about them. I suspect they are not up to much in which case I will take up her offer to give them to me. If however anyitem might be worth something I want to pay her. She knows there is an Abu closed face reel which will suit me if it works and she thinks his rods are Diawa of the same vintage as the reels.
Would appreciate any feedback from those far more knowledgable than I!
