Any one collect vintage gear? - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

I have a number of small antique conventional reels that have come into my possession...

Some work some don't...

The newest one is a penn 85, (needs a spool side end cap). Then there are a couple from the early 1960's or late 50's; a Shakespeare criterion, an ideal, and a couple of others that I do not know what they are, even an old metal fly reel (freewheels better than my Avets!)

I also have a simple small lake rod and an old octagonal wooden rod or maybe an outrigger with Colorado printed on it. These are all pretty cool but I have no room to be a collecter.

If you or someone you know is a collector of vintage gear...
