Garcia Mitchell 410 on a 6'6" John Powell Zebco Pro Staff rod. Proudly made in the USA. Certainly not a crappie rod. But someone was very proud of this bass fishing combo from the 70's. Couldn't leave it behind. So it followed me home. Attachment 409743
Attachment 409744 even comes complete with the multi color camo line
Great find. Glad it found a new home!

Beautiful find sir
Sent from my iPhone using Crappie.com
Very cool Jack!
The reel worked like it is new out of the box. Rod has some backbone for a glass rod. It is begging to go bass fishing as we speak
I've got a Mitchell- Garcia 300 that my father bought for me in 1957. Still using it. Largest bass 7 1/2# at LOZQuote:

Yes it does. Think this one will be a fisher instead of a shelf sitter. Rarely do I find a set matched up and both pieces usable.
here in Texas it could be used for crappie , lots of the lakes here have pretty good size crappie and "bass" tackle is what some folks are using more or less .
really nice find , lovely set up my friend
I usually use light action rods myself. For a glass rod this one has some backbone
Nice! Go to it!Quote:
