HEDDON BAMBOO ROD FISH LABEL

Hi

New to the board so bear with me. I have a Heddon bamboo casting rod that has a red fish shaped decal on the rod butt with Heddon printed across the length of the fish. On the reel seat, it is stamped Heddon's made in USA. I'm looking for info as to the age, value range, rarity, etc. I will try to get a pic available asap. Just not sure how to do it. Thanks for any info in advance, Jeff

Heddon rods were highly regarded, at least insofar as product rods go (they also had a "hand made" shop where each rod was built start to finish by an individual craftsman). With a photo I can most likely tell you if the rod is pre or post 1940's.
