And my dad and I found about 1/5 of our/his gear....I'm getting ready to head to Gilroy to meet up with RedlineRobert and teach him how to fish... Most of this stuff is older then I am!
Can't see anything!
red x's is all I see. Hurry up so I can teach YOU how to fish.
Are those little red x's made by Shimano?
fixed guys..sorry! ;D My website hyperlink protection wasn't enabled for this site...should be good now.
Wow Mark. That is quite the collection! Those reels and lures are very cool.

Yeah...my dad was/is hardcore about Bass fishing. He buys stuff and forgets about it. I'll get pictures of the rods soon. I even found my old fishing jacket...we're framing it and putting it on your wall!
Too bad.
This was starting to turn into a real fun thread?
I can see!!! 8-)
Some of those lures look well used!
Congrats on your inheritance.
You may have found a gold mine.
Treasure it all!
I still cannot see. On firefox I don't see anything, and on internet explorer, all I see is the dreaded X
Awesome collection. Do the Abus still work good? I would usem.
Looks like my fishing building only yours is better origanised.

What a find! Put that stuff to use!
Thanks guys! We plan on putting alot of it to use very soon. The Abus will be cleaned and checked out to make sure they're still in good use. Other then that...we still have more gear to pull out and go through...pictures to come!
Phenx- The glass cases for jerseys are awesome. My mom has a few for my old US freestyle uniforms. Great way to display classic clothing.
Cool collection, somebody has to get dad up to date,...wait till he holds a chronarch mg on a Loomis, he's gonna think he just drank a red bull.
Catch 'em up on your trip guys and keep it safe.
Dude, hold on to those Fat Raps! I would kill to have a collection of those. I have one of those Black Maxx reels. They last forever. You could upgrade to something newer but those reels will last longer. Don't let them go.
I agree hold on to those CBs, i've found a few of those older crankbaits at garage sales and still use a few of them. Something about those older baits that really catch fish, nice stuff!
How much do you want for those Rogues?! I'll trade you two new Lucky Crafts for the two unopened Smithwicks if you are interested...
Do a search on ebay and look at what some of that kind of stuff is selling for? I was bidding on one of those Fat raps with a chartuese back and it sold for like $26. Since a lot of that stuff is discontinued you may not want to fish with it?

Mark,
I need to tell your dad that you're hawking his stuff on BassResource. Maybe he'll pay me a finders fee with one of those classic reels.
...hey, those FR-7 Fat Raps are worthless and don't catch any fish :.....might as well just throw them out....or just send them to me :....I'll take care of it for you.....

Yup......Fat Raps are fetching some coin on ebay.
Awesome collection. Just the sight of that stuff brings back some good memories. Thanks for sharing.
Send them Fat Raps to ME
My dad has ton more stuff that we're going to go through soon. He buys new reels every so often. Some of those Abu's haven't even had line on them yet. Same goes for those Fat Raps. Can't wait to get out on the water with my salt & peppers!
