southbend fly rod and reel


Question
I am interested in the value of a Southbend bamboo fly pole and reel. The pole has markings that say  59-9' and says Southbend Famous in Fishing and comes with xtra tip fabric sleeve and cardboard tube. The reel is a Open-O-Matic No. 1130 Model D. Thank you for any info you can give. Also on the cork handle the gold sticker is worn off but i can read ,comfortable efficient grip.

Answer
Hi Mike,

The 59-9' model in Good-Very Good condition, with original bag and tube would be valued in the $100-$130 range.   The reel, probably $10 or so.

The sticker says Comficient, a South Bend trademark.  

This rod was built for bass fishing and should throw a 7WT or 8WT line.

Thanks,  Joe
