Answer
Hi John,
I may not be much help either. The reel is pretty common and valued in the $5-$10 range. The rod is harder to find data on but looks to be in the $20-$40 range depending on condition. If you have the travel pack (probably in leatherette) for the rod and reel, you might find a buyer for the set. If not, the older fiberglass rod and reel combos don't have a large collector following so it might be difficult to get a good price for it.
This should be a good rod and reel for fishing and it is certainly portable. Your best bet might be to just keep it and use it yourself.
Thanks, Joe
