the only place i can think of around here that might have "vintage" gear like that is a place called BACON'S FISHING TACKLE. it is in south shreveport. the guy that owns it is named michael bacon. good guy. i know his little brother pretty well. here is his address and phone number.

5025 flournoy lucas road
shreveport, la 71129
318.686.6309

michael pours his own plastics for bass and crappie. it is a really neat store just to go look at all the old wooden plugs with glass eyes and old bamboo rods. he's got a ton of really old and valuable relics. hope this helps.
