Old Fishing Reels

For over 20 years I have been an avid fisherman and have simply fell in love with old fishing reels. My wife can attest to that fact now as these old fishing reels are a major facet to not only my collection but to our interior decor as well. Bless her heart, she's finally given in and now actually helps me find these beautiful little gems all over the place now to add to our fishing reels collection. It feels as if I have been researching and collecting old fishing reels and pretty much antique fishing equipment and lures my entire life. If there is one thing for sure and true, that is you never know where one of these beauties will pop up so you gotta keep your eyes open all the time. But hey, most collectors do. Bottomline is, find something you love and do it with all your heart, desire and passion, I've found mine in old fishing lures.
