Fly Rod Value?

Fly Rod Value? - 06/17/21 09:55 PM

I have a Montague split bamboo Rod in it's original sock and tube container. The tube is marked "Montague Rod and Reel Co., Montague City, Mass. It's a 3 piece rod, with an extra 4th lightweight section. Condition is extraordinary, considering it's age. Research online indicates that Montague was a rod mass-producer up until the mid-1950's. Any ideas as to it's value? Appreciate any help, thanks.

At least a couple hundred bucks, if all the pieces are the same length and the rod is in good condition... none of the ferrules are loose, the cane strips haven’t delaminated, cork and reel seat are in good shape.

Those are nice collectors items.
