I have collected written and used antique fishing tackle for longer than I care to remember. For many years I ran The Antique Tackle Observer and I have two books published Men of Trent and The Dreadnought Casting Reel Co.. I am currently working on an ebook of the best of ATO plus follow up volumes to my two other books.
