Sounds great! Miss those Chesapeake minute videos!

Killer man!

You should go back to the field. If they plowed even deeper into the soil, they probably unearthed even more artifacts from the Paleo period.

Would love to hear what you experienced in the field that night.

Great info! I have no experience in doing this and you answered all my questions quick and to the point!

Excellent video. Interesting the rotation. I bet I have 2-3 Mitchells in my garage. I thought you might mention something about Mitchells little brother the 308 ultra light.

I have a tarnished patina medalist 1496 with a round diamolite. It was in my dad’s truck when he passed.

Thank you enjoyed the video love you shop

The 300 was "The" reel back in the day!❤

Mentholate is my go-to for cuts. The acetone in it let's me know it's working! Both are mercury free nowadays.

A bit of a click bait video , to catch anglers . Tell me how many people have Mitchells that are over 40 - 50 years old and still going strong , reels that have been passed from father to son , or even grandson , Most reels are a bit flash nowadays how many will be around in 20 -30 years ! , A good quality built reel looked after and not abused cleaned and oiled after a seasons fishing , will last . true parts wear thru use, that is common to everything . There have been a hell of a lot of fish tamed by people using Mitchells . They have a good longevity .

We have 6 foot ultra light rods, however they do not have a flexible tip. It's hard to tell if your weight is on the bottom, as our Lakes have a marl, muddy candy soft bottom.

So glad I found your channel, someone who has a passion with Collecting Fishing tackle and equipment!

Well said Shawn thank you !!

Just subscribed, that lure I believe is a Felmlee Eelett from France really like the old stuff

hello sir, i just today ran across your channel and am a newly subscriber. I recently in inherited alot of fishing lures from my father who passed two summers ago. I wondered if i can reach out to you and ask a few questions about them ? thank you so much.

I use mine for Catfish the 301 is a tank .

Awesome point!!!🙂👍👍👍👍👍👍

How about chix swiveled fishing plugs old for salmon muskies

Caught a 9 inch .6 pound shellcracker at my goto lake on a Rebel Crawfish crankbait. That thing took some line with him too.

Shawn how do I book a trip with you on the Chesapeake Bay?

What do you mean when you talk about Action?

That’s shit is groovin….you digggg

Found a Weber Wigle-Jet for a buck at an old garage sale. Favorite lure I have. That old school top water has some action on her.

I've got one of these, thank you for all the information. Your shop looks like a nice place to set and talk fishing.

My mom called it monkey blood, and to this day I don't know why?

I’m 70 and really fin digging it

1:35 not sure if you’d see this now but still gonna ask, do you know what that red and white lure your holding in 1:35 is called and how you would use it and around what year was it made i recently found one exactly like that but just beat to crap no clue how long it’s been there that lake i fish at was built around the 1940s i instantly recognized that as the lure i found

They don’t make music like this anymore…. Outstanding song 🎶

I got some arrowheads but I do not know what kind are they

Pretty neat history!

Is there a fishable population of blue cat in cox creek on kent island? I get out to the cheasapeake about every other year and was wondering where the closest blue cat fishing was to cox neck road, any help is appreciated, love your videos

This kicks ass

Newsub"

MY NIEGHBOR JUST CAME OVER w/ a Hurd! CHEERS" from Idaho!

Great video! I own a Medalist, made in the USA. 1494 DA. It's a fantastic reel and I picked it up at a secondhand store for $15 in my opinion it was a steal.

Amazing video! Been trying to get into fly fishing but I hate the high tech look of all modern fly reels so I’ve been researching as much as I could about the medalist all night till I’ve stumbled upon your video which told me everything I need to know!

Brilliant video, 5* 👍

Great Video! What model South Bend Fiberglass rod did Lefty buy?

I learned something today !!! 😁👍😉 btw , Bought a 1969 Mitchell 300 today with pole for 20.00 . It cleaned up nice and added grease and oil , It purrs 🙂👍

When I was learning to fly fish in the early 90s I went to a one day lesson taught by Lefty in Wintergreen Va. It really made a difference, I will always remember that day.

I still use my whites 6000D that I got in 1980, it seems to work good in parks as I can eliminate the junk better than with my new digital machine which just works different than the analog machine. The garrett is much lighter and easier to use and goes deeper but the Whites just seems to be set up for coins.

1:44 is that a vintage Cicada lure? DORNS fishing has similar when I was a kid but don’t seem to make em anymore. My dad and I use to buy them about about 30 years ago. They looked different I bet this one beats those by a few decades!

French made stick bait , with lip on back/top.

Lake Havasu is the place for monster shellcrackers

Great demonstration👍

Rip Lefty

Very cool, I heard Lefty could do this but this is the first time I've seen it done.

Very helpful...thank you
