This vintage angler telescopic fishing pole is a great addition for any fishing enthusiast. With a 9-foot height, it provides ample length for casting into deep water. The model number AP103LW signifies its brand and unique identity. Its vintage nature adds a touch of classic style to your fishing gear collection. This pole is perfect for those who appreciate the art of fishing and want a reliable piece of equipment to bring on their adventures. The bottom of the pole is crakes and it will come out the back side as is. A simple piece of tape has been used on the back to keep it from doing so and worked just fine, but I took the tape off in order to properly show the damage to the bottom of the pole as seen in the one close up photo.
