It's an interesting beautiful rod however "Best" is not in any of my books or memory. It looks to be unused . It appears to be bamboo . Bamboo trout fly rods do command good money but that is not what you have. You have a combo rod. It is a fly and spin / bait rod both. I have attempted to resale them but have not had good luck . I would recommend the fly fishing museum in Montana or back east - PA maybe. Take a tax deduction from donation is my recommendation.
