What is the oldest zebco or southbend fishing gear do you have?
I have a 5 year old zebco slingshot 202 ,4 year old light action storm fishing combo, and 8 year old southbend fishing rod and reel.

I use the Zebco 33 classics and rhinos from the mid 90s on a consistent basis… They are workhorses and have outlasted lots of other reels. Love em!!!
I’ve still got my old Zebco 202 that I got when I was a kid. I even use it sometimes when I am using multiple poles. Let’s see, it’s about 25 years old now and still going strong, well… it might have one foot in the grave and the other on a banana peel… but it’s still very, very usable (and user friendly). My neice (age 3) will go with me sometimes and use it. Fun question!
I have a VERY VERY old Zebco 202. It’s around 25-30 yrs. of age. Stripped it out on a carp last year. I don’t like the reel though. It’s horrible.
My dad owns one of the “Rhino Tough” 33’s that’s OLD as can be. He fishes with it every day. Him & his pistol gripped rods!
Happy fishing.
