Fishing Tackle Number 36

Excerpt from Fishing Tackle, Vol. 36 To a great many anglers, too, the idea of repairing their own rods and tackle seems im possible, while as for making little odds and ends of constant usefulness, this is believed to be a task to be looked at only in the light of certain failure. In my little workshop I have a few simple tools with which I have made a number of articles, which if not handsome, have at least given me the greatest satisfaction when they proved to be practical. There are very few anglers who cannot do even better work. Dur ing the long evenings of autumn and winter a great deal of amusement may be obtained from overhauling the fishing rods and tackle, making little devices for use the next season, and giv ing the weary brain change and rest from the exactions of one's daily toil.

Robert A. Slade, after collecting old fishing tackle since 1958 and contributing articles on old fishing lures for a collector magazine for several years started researching and writing books in the 1990's. He published the HISTORY & COLLECTIBLE FISHING TACKLE OF WISCONSIN in 1999 which sold 4,500 copies. Bob realized that even though there have been many books published on the subject of old fishing lures that few books covered any detailed history on the old lure makers. His latest book writing project was nine years in the making and covers over 100 years of lure making history starting in 1875 and covers over 2,500 lures makers throughout all of North America. THE ENCYCLOPEDIA OF OLD FISHING LURES MADE IN NORTH AMERICA is the first publication with extensive history and patent information on old lure makers and the first to include extensive coverage on Canadian lure makers. The author traveled to 11 states and 3 Candian Providences visting collectors homes, newspaper archives, museums and other sources and has taken over 10,000 pictures in preparing the historical stories for these books. The set of books arranges for the individual and company lures makers to appear in alphabetical order. People purchasing these books can buy any one single book, a whole set, or even a book a month if they desire as the books will be printed and shipped on demand. Each book has over 400 pages of text, pictures and collector values with each book containing a table of contents and index as well as a master index for the complete set of books.
