A couple of prized possessions:

Banjo: Bacon Professional FF, c. 1918
Shotgun: Fox Sterlingworth 16ga Ejector, c. 1935

Both still doing their jobs (when I do mine Wink ) 89 and 71 years later, respectively.

Hey! Pickin' and shootin', a combination that never fails to impress.

I've got a Deering Goodtime 2 and a Fulton 16ga.

My question - where is the flyrod? Seems like you're missing that third piece.

Well, my only bamboo rod is an old South Bend and I never fish it. One of my favorites is a 3wt made in Korea Embarassed ; I woulda had to retitle the post!
