Question

old hi's horrocks-ibbo
I was wondering how much this fishing set may be worth i inherited it from my grandfather. It was never used and i believe it is fiberglass. It comes with everything wooden lures, sinkers, ect. still in the box. i attached a picture of it hopefully it helps.

Thanks

Normally I would say that the tackle has minimal value since they made low to medium quality fishing tackle in high volumes...thus the low collector interest.

I would think with the original packaging maybe $50. If you put it on ebay...might do a little worse or better.
