Do you have a crusty, old, fly rod sitting up in the attic? Or how about in Grandma’s attic? Assuming that you have a decent relationship with said grandma, maybe you should take it out for a spin this season.

There is a lot of fun and functional angling value in acquiring and using antique fly fishing gear. If you know where to look, what to use, and what you’re using, it can actually add a whole other facet to your fly fishing.

This episode is really only a primer, but hopefully it will get you thinking about what you might find as you peruse fishing shows, drive by yard sales, and (eventually) shop a premier tackle auctioneer.
