I'm looking for some older fiberglass rods to match up with some small 70's & 80's vintage Penn reels for summer trolling with some "classic" combos. I'm thinking that these flea markets might be the ticket for some of these rods...

A local charter Captain brought over 100 rods last year and sold them all within 20 minutes. I believe just about all of the shows have someone with a barrel full of old rods cheap.

I'm pretty sure he told me they were going for $2-$5 each!
