    image2.JPG Hey this old fishing reel is it worth anything? Looks more of a bluish color, has 710 on one side and spare pawl on the other image1.JPG

    I think what you are seeing as 710, actually reads OIL. Looks like a pretty generic baitcasting reel from the 50s or so. The plastic case makes it a little different. Someone would want it but it is not worth too much. I am kind of surprised that it doesn't have any identifying marks. Only one winding handle is also odd.

    Looks like an early 60,s bait casting/trolling reel. Seeing it looks like it's plastic and has no brand name on it I'm with Brad - not worth much.

    What kind of rod is it on? Vintage rods are very good sellers, too. A collector might be interested in the whole thing or the rod may be worth more than the reel.
