Gary Mills

Post by Barbellina »

I had a brilliant day with Gary Mills helping to build my new centre pin, when I say helping I was hindering more like. What a cracking fella he is, so informative regarding the history of the reel making business. His collection of goodies is second to none and the whole “reel experience” is well worth double the cost. I cannot wait to get out on the Trent and try out my new beauty.
Regards all, B

I knew the pathway like the back of my hand
I felt the earth beneath my feet
Sat by the river and it made me complete.

Well done Barbellina and Garry. I look forward to seeing a picture of it attached to a rod and alongside your first catch.
