Tom,
That definitely looks worth a trip. Thanks for posting.

Does the Carlisle area still have an antique tackle show like Bart had back in the day? Thanks.

Mike, the closest show I know Is the annual spring and fall Vintage hunting & fishing sale held in Lancaster about an hour away from Carlisle. It’s a one day event. Close to Lancaster and Carlisle is the German Trading Post, an antique store with an amazing selection of tackle. Here’s a link to an article the author called the coolest vintage tackle shop.
