I hope I'm posting in the correct area. I've been at this fly fishing game since 1990. That's not a land mark year for most, but it it is for me. I had been throwing flies in the sierra Nevada since the 1980's, with questionable results.

But I met a man. Borne in the year 1900. He spent his career as a hardhat diver. A meek man. A strong man. Someone I was proud to call "friend", not for my accomplishments, but for his. So, before he passes on, he throws me some gear that has been stagnating in his attic, maybe 1940's / 60's, good stuff. Delta stripper flies, old (undocumented) material's, reel with spools (old stuff), and his hand tied flies.

I haven't seen anything on this site pertaining to old gear. We're all here for fun. Whatchagot? Show us your ancient stuff, 10yrs+. If not , make your case, What did the old man pass on to you ? I'm easy.
