My dad gave me his old fishing tackle spinners, crankbait, jigs, etc. I know the stuff hasn’t been open for at least 20 years most of it is 25-30 years old. will they still be good to use, there isn’t any rust or mold no them.
Thanks
Hi there hitec and welcome to the BFT. Most of gear should be quite usable. However, personally I would discard any fishing lines. Good luck.
Take a look at the hooks too.. might need to touch 'em with a file or replace a few.
Welcome aboard hitek and thanks for the good question.
Be sure to check the condition of any plastic items too. Some of the plastics will go bad after time.
any unopend ones you may want to concider as wall hangers.. They may not have a cash value now, but one day they will, and if any of them are wood, they do have a cash value now, they quit making the majority of lures out of wood a good number of years ago…
