Rod? Reel? Sports car? Pictures would help a lot.

Whatever it might be, it was made exclusively for sale through Western Auto Stores.

I agree with Mark! I have two V532's, and one of them says Game Getter on it. I thought they were Sears & Roebuck rods. Someone on the Forum (it was prolly Mark) told me the were sold through (Sears) Western Auto stores. Western Auto was a kinda Sears sporting goods store, and more, and at 72 years of age, I vaguely remember them. But then at my age I vaguely remember anything.


More than any other fish, trout are dependent on the ambiance in which they are caught (and released)!
