Some time ago my wife and sister-in-law cleaned out a house that their aunt was moving out of and I was told that I could have any tools and other things that I wanted. I found several fishing rods and reels and just put them in my storage building and kind of forgot about them. Last night I decided to see what they all looked like, cleaned them up, and made sure they worked. The rods and reels belonged to the aunt's husband who had passed away and he apparently liked Shakespeare products. They are all Shakespeare reels with matching rods. There is a Durango reel on an Eagle Claw rod, a Firebird reel on a Firebird rod, a Tiger reel on a Tiger rod, and there is a Mantis reel on a Mantis rod. The Mantis reel is missing a retainer ring around the button so, it doesn't work but I would like to fix it.
The Diawa reel is on its original Diawa rod and belonged to my step-dad, I had it in my storage building along with the others and just included it because I think it's cool. I have never used Shakespeare stuff so I hope these rods and reels are decent quality.
The Firebird set up still has the clear protector sleeves on the rod so, I don't think it has ever been used.
