An old friend I grew up with told me his dad was a big fly fisherman back in the 1940โs and he had some of his materials. He wanted to know if I wanted them since he had no use for it, of course I said yes thank you! anyway there are a few books, feathers, thread, hooks and tools. Thought I would show yโall this bobbin. There is a hole in the metal tube just above the spool and then it would come out the top end. Skip The rest of the items except the feathers and they are in my freezer for a while. Tools and a small fly box. Hooks, wax & and fly he tied. Thread/Silk, loose feather parts for tying. I hope to find out what these were used for.

Does the string go through the entire tube? Look like it's good to tie several more jigs.....

I've heard of people using the quills as floats/strike indicators

I've heard of people using the quills as floats/strike indicators I kind of thought about that, but I just donโt know how these would be the way they are done. Plus him being big time fly fisherman and in this box with tools. I am not saying they are not for floats, just thinking maybe something else? Skip
