This is my test for adding pictures. After talking to Alan he suggested I put some old jigs on the lure page. That will take some time to take pic's and jot some history down. So here is my shed. Most of my rods are in the overhead. In the second picture you will see some brown rods (horizontal) they are the finest wood (Calcutta's) on the planet. Picking, wrapping these is a process different than Glass/Graphite. You that are old enough to have used them know what I mean. I still use them when the bug bites me. Will post the old jigs soon.
Thanks to all of you for your contribution to this wonderful site.

Very nice Normslanding, I bet you spend a lot of time in that shed, I know I would.
Thanks for sharing.

You know, if you stand those awesome rods up and take another picture, you might get photo of the month ;D

Nice! I wish my stuff was that organized. You even have the fridge for the beverages. If you click on the IMG code and paste it in your posts the pics will show up. Bob

Thank you all for the comments. If I put my Makairas on the Calcutta's that would turn heads. For you that are into fresh water I have over 40 Langley Targets, Streamlites, and Lurecasts. The Targets I use for bass and Panfish. The are the conventional reels of choice when using 2 to 8lb line.
I am working on the Jig pictures, and will post them soon.
