I got this Heddon Black Beauty fishing rod I need some help as to it's value. I know a bunch of you love fishing as much as your Parkers so I figured this would be the perfect forum to ask. Besides, it'll give you something else to talk about. It's a #17-9ft - 2F. thanks for you help..

Angel, I have the same rod in the Thorobred 17# model, same dimensions, except silver fittings. Nice rod, inherited from my grandfather who used it for Wisconsin and Michigan steelhead fishing. I think the Black Beauty is a rare model, and quite attractive. Heddons were well made mass production rods. Could be a great rod for those Florida bass ponds. Should come out to about a 7 wt line rod.

These Heddons don't bring much money, probably under $500 is my guess. Mine I'm told should be around $325, yours maybe a bit more. Your best cane site is www.clarksclassicflyrodforum.com.
