I just received my hard copy of Fishing Tackle Retailer. The article looks great in print and this is the huge (146 page+ covers) July 2018 ICAST issue, so untold thousands in the sportfishing tackle industry plus anglers visiting this major trade show will have a good chance of seeing it! The official magazine circulation is more than 17,000 copies plus they have an online presence. It is great that an article about old reels and mentioning ORCA has reached a wide audience. Bernie, please let ORCA know if you get any feedback.
