Question
Kingfisher
My father found a 4 peice Kingfisher fly rod, it is in good condition and he was wanting to know what it's worth. it has what looks to be it's original case and looks to be atleast 40 to 50 years old.
AnswerHi Shane,
This looks to be a fly/casting rod combination...mostly used for bait fishing I would guess. It looks like a 3 piece rod with two tip sections...one of the tips is short. It likely dates from the 1930s-1940s.
The rod was probably made by Montague. Value depends on condition but I would guess this one to be in the $30-$60 range due mostly to the short tip.
Kingfisher was a brand name used by multiple rod makers over the years but this one looks like an older Montague rod.
Thanks, Joe
