Here we have the bottom part of two fishing poles where the reel attaches. The reel attachment mechanisms works great since the top is secure, which it should be, and the bottom floats, which it should do, and the locking nut moves freely up and down it\'s threads.The long one: Made of _I think_ cherry wood. There is evidence on the end of the pole where a lathe drive cented was attached to the stock in order to turn the pole into it\'s present shape. It is very nicely done pole.The short one: Make of _I think_ oak. This one has some paint or other residue on one part of it. Otherwise similar in construction to the long one except in wood species.Look over the pictures and offer accordingly.Good luck!
