My in laws bought an estate a couple of weeks ago and the owner obviously had a thing for fishing rods. I don’t even know how many there are yet for sure but I’m guessing high 20’s.
I grabbed 2 to see what I could find out about them. One is an Abu diplomat 751 and found it online fairly easily and they seem to run anywhere from $120-$250 depending on condition.
The 2nd is a fly rod. It’s 9’5” and looks to be bamboo. All metal parts are brass. No writing or engraving that I can find but it is near mint. Beautifully balanced rod. I’ll attach a few pictures and any help is really appreciated.

Looks shalatched or varnished.If it is then that's why no mark because its been redone.
Not much value if that's the case.
