  
 Fishing Poles

Hunting and fishing trips have always made for great memories. Such memorabilia has become quite popular among collectors, and you'll see an example or two at each Cracker Barrel Old Country Store® location. Every store will feature an old long gun over the mantel in the dining room, and you'll see other examples as well. Fishing poles, fishing reels, minnow buckets, and cricket boxes are just some of the collectibles popular with fishing enthusiasts. Decor Warehouse Manager Larry Singleton says hes seen certain brands of old fishing reels sell for several thousand dollars. (You'd have to catch a lot of fish to earn back your investment.) Even old fishing lures can bring several hundred dollars. Wooden duck decoys have become so popular with collectors that its gotten hard to find any for hunting. Other popular items include old guns, powder horns, and boxes. These collectibles were made any time from the 1800s through the 1940s.
