The day of the swayback (Jean-François Moretti and Cosimo De Benedetto)

Good day to all :)
 
I see the attraction to that knife. ;):thumbsup:
Thanks pal :D :thumbsup:
I’ve got several of those old reels. One even pre-dates the invention of the level wind, so you have to guide the line as you reel it in.

These were “casting reels”, but they hadn’t invented the free spool yet. The dificulty of casting one of those led to Americans taking to those weird European reels that hang down under your rod.
I learned to fish with a wooden 'centre-pin' reel, about as simple as it gets :)

Was looking for an interesting background to use today. Was out earlier but dang near get blown away.
Anyway, Jack Black Jack Black might recognize this spot. We picked the print up in York a number of years ago. Back to two I really like to carry.

Great pairing Gary :) That section of wall doesn't usually see a lot of traffic. A few years ago, I was in York, wqhen that tower/postern was open, but the spiral staircase was so narrow, it was a tight tit getting up and down! :D Thanks for thinking of me my friend :) :thumbsup:
Thank you very kindly, Jack!!! :) Love those Barlows! :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

Looks like a Double Day Double Barlow carry; I can see why it's hard to keep your hands off of those beauties, cool magnet too! 😁 :cool: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
LOL! :D Thank you my friend, when I was a kid, my dad worked in a factory, which, among other things, produced industrial magnets, so I never really bought the ones they sold in stores :) :thumbsup:
Another Double Barlow Day, again following Jack Black Jack Black 's lead. :)
Fantastic JJ, it's great to see those superb strawberry Robeson Barlows :cool: :) :thumbsup:
