Ha, I've been musing the same. I have and old leather full length coat (I was a bit of a goth back in the day)'that I was thinking of making into reel bags. So I'd be very interested to know the bear essentials.

Tremendous, I can't believe it's just a hobby.I will use my float winder case for as long as I live and I know it will have a few centuries left in it after that!
