The Friday Funhouse


The Video of the Week

For some reason I found the fishing portion of this long video of a 1920s home movie of a fishing trip utterly charming. Notice how he uses the early Bache Brown spinning reel upside down! I am guessing this dates from the late 1940s rather than the 1930s.



12 Things I Would Buy If Only I Could Afford Them

A Brass Faced Hardy Perfect is always a rare find.



Otto Zwarg reels are super cool.



This Chapman style lure is attracting a LOT of interest.



A Shapleigh Ultra Casting Wood Minnow wood box is super cool, especially if you have the lure!



Another Paulson’s Combination Minnow has hit the market.



This Pflueger Surprise is a delight.



Not familiar with this custom Skippy but it looks cool.


A Heddon Near Surface Wiggler is pretty great.


Love this CCBC Wee Dee.



Little Sac lures are beautifully made.



Lucky 13s in weird colors are always fun.



Everyone likes Winchester flies on cards.



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