Ohio Made Fishing Tackle Book

Has anyone seen this book?

Since it seems to cover several manufacturers who made reels as well as lures, I wondered if it was a decent reference to put in the reel collector's library. Does anyone know?

Sure looks interesting. Mr. Heston was in last year's nflcc directory, but not this one...lots of that going around, tho. Never had dealings with him that i recall. Does anyone know who reeljohn! is? That would be a quick way to find out if it is worth a buy/review.

I ordered one from Scott a couple weeks ago. It appears that there is a slight delay with shipping the order from the publisher. I am eager to see what sort of content this book has in it. I'm hoping for perhaps some new tidbits on Pflueger. I'll post my opinion here when it comes in. In the mean time I am still perusing the Pflueger Pfacts book whenever I get a chance! :-)

Can someone give me an e-mail address so i can just contact the author and order one? I don't see any need to involve eBay and cost him eBay fees, or cost me those fees if he is passing them along by increasing the price for eBay? Thanks, Jeff

Scott Heston's email is

Seems like a nice fellow...and he tells me he will be advertising it in the Reel News soon as well.
