Default New - Vintage Tackle Section

The new (or should that be old) section for vintage tackle is now live.

God bless all who sail in her...

Is that yours NB?

If so, a nice example.

I was tempted to buy one not so long ago but ended up getting another old reel instead!

For a bit of fun I still fish with my old cane Chapman 500 coupled with an Intrepid Elite reel or centrepin. Amazing to play a fish on as the rod will bend right through to the cork under your hands......never had a hookpull with it and have caught carp to over 30lb on the set up. Takes you back a bit and the realisation that in the 'old days' rods were built for playing fish rather than casting huge distances and the reels we used reels were crap !!! The only way to play a decent fish on one of the old Mitchells or Intrepids was to loosen the clutch and use finger pressure....otherwise is was jerk,jerk,jerk !!!!
