The Creel Magazine - Reg Righyni

Post by Michael »

I've been told that there's an article, in one of the creel magazines, relating to the construction of Reg Righynis' grayling float.
Does anyone have any knowledge of such article and the date of said magazine, so I can look it up...

Unable to find the piano wire he used, I used carbon fibre and stuck an olivette, which made them cock quickly
