I am offering A SMALL COLLECTION OF FRESHWATER FISHING GEAR.  All these items were from the same old fishing shack on Skaneateles Lake.

1) Antique Copper Bait Box.  It is marked on the bottom with a logo - a diamond and the letters that appear to be RP.  Also marked: Made In England.  Condition: good - a grungy surface from use - never polished.  Inside surface, which at one time was painted. has deteriorated.  Measurements:  4 1/2" in diameter X  3/4".

2)  Antique Fish Gaffing Hook.  No makers marks.  Made of steel with a turned wood handle.  Condition: good - used  - light surface rust.  Measurements:  25"  long.  Hook end is 4" across.

3) Vintage South Bend Bait Casting Reel.  Marked:  South Bend Bait Company Quality Tackle South Bend, Ind. and Oreno Level Winding Anti- Back - Lash Casting Ree No. 1000.  Condition:  very good - used but well cared for.

Please note!  Please study my pictures carefully and ask any questions you may have before you decide to bid.  Also, shipping has become quite expensive - especially foreign shipping.  Take that into consideration before you bid.

Thanks for your consideration!
