Well, I've finally done it!

Post by kevinhaney1 »

After procrastinating for a long time, I've finally put together a personal web site, I've posted some of my stories, classic tackle pictures, and have a nice selection of items for sale as I'm thinning out the herd. Rods, reels, lure displays, books, and many other items are there. If you've got a few minutes, check it out and let me know what you think! It is http://www.vintageanglers.com.

Nicely done. I do have a question. On the page with the article "OF WOOD, BAMBOO, BRASS AND SILK" there are a couple of pictures. Who built the rod with the wooden handle and checkered grip?

That, SpringCreek, is the Heddon Deluxe #60, what I consider to be the most beautiful fly rod ever built. And it's my favorite rod!

I know there are some places that list purveyors of classic angling gear. Can any of you guys suggest some sites where I could get my website listed?

Love it Kevin! Nice job! BTW, the mystery Belmont rod you have for sale was made by Montague for Sears. It is a similar/same taper as their Rapidan/Fishkill. I have that same rod and it is a very nice 4/5 weight. Now I see we have two rods in common (I also have an 8' Canada Creek).

Well done Kevin! Offering items that will invite new comers to the bamboo arena at fair and very reasonable prices is very welcoming.
Wishing you well with the venture!

P.S. I just picked up an unused H-I Cascade - 8 1/2'!
