Thanks John... Pix attached. OCEAN CITY 9/0 - 609. Im told the cradle itself may have been repainted, but that predates me. I did have this original tip section professionally and beautifully restored. trade offers welcome, and i can email more pictures upon request. thanks all. daniel

Nice set up. Who is the maker of the rod? It looks like maybe an old Fin Nor Tycoon. What would you rate the rod, 80 pound, 100 pound or heavier?

The original seller said the Tip Is Tycoon, and that Tim O'Brien (current owner of Tycoon) identified it, BUT I'm not certain. Id say 50-80 class, and its a beauty. I am open to trades and offers. Thanks! daniel

I collect big game tackle mostly pre-1960... reels (though not penn), gaffs, big rods, fighting chairs etc... I'm also open to smaller saltwater reels by some of the better manufacturers, and big game rods like Vom Hofe, Hardy, Tycoon...

i also collect ephemera and branded items from the Tuna Club, Cabo Blanco, Swordfish and Mako club, etc and anything Zane Grey fishing related, including ZG Teasers and Hardy Teasers. I'm also looking for Linen Line in spools from 100 yards to 1200 yards.

So either a straight trade or a smaller item plus cash. Or if you have an item worth more, i could add to the trade with cash or something else from my side.

Basically I'm game to see what Orcans who like this are willing to trade, and lets see if it finds a new home. Thanks all

I just listed this on ebay - at a starting price of $599. - which i'd loose money on, but have to prioritize my collection... I'm still open to trades on Orca only... thanks...

Thanks again - though as noted I think you are at least a couple hundred short in cash or trade value... I can loose a few hundred on this but not more. I think the 599 on eBay is a fair price if someone gets it for that... and on orca I'd take the loss if someone wants it at that price before a bid is up. Or if you add something on top. We can PM or email more on this if you want. And thanks again- I'm always open to taking tackle ! D

I put actual shipping cost- but yes if that what eBay says I'll honor that. Or we can still meet half way? Please let me know - there are Bunch of hits/watchers already but I'll take it down for you since you asked first and you are an orca member. Thanks

the auction ends tomorrow just after 6pm, (Oct 14, 2017) i started it at a $300 loss, so hope someone from Orca takes advantage of getting it at $599 -ish... thanks and good luck
