I have seen many, many cool Heddon items but I have never seen a Heddon Screw Driver in an envelope before!



This is an awesome oddity French Alarm Reel.



A Leonard Tournament fly rod is a perfect casting machine.



I know collectors who have waited years to find this Heddon Spoon-Y Frog Gift Box.



This is an awesome rustic looking ice decoy.


Auto Winder rod and reel.



Pflueger made some cool lures and the Neverfail Wooden Minnow was one of them.



Kirwin's Bad Egg just sits there, staring at you.



This Playfair Wooden Minnow is a cool trade minnow.



The Douglas Patent Pflueger Supreme with intact dog ears is an iconic fishing reel.



I've always thought this Crawdad River Peeler was a striking lure color.



Pal-O-Mines in Scramble Finish are always amazing.



As always, have a great weekend -- and be good to each other, and yourself.
