Update: Per Brandin has been on the mend for a few years now, and I'm please to say he has been putting in some time at his shop. The bulk of his collection along with the Tom Clark collection is now sold. The best way to stay up to date with Per's rodmaking is to keep an eye on his website. As rods become available you may find them listed here: https://www.brandin-splitcane.com/development.html

Friends,

In January 2023, I traveled east to visit rod maker, angler and author Per Brandin at his home in Massachusetts. Per is stepping back from the consignment side of things for the time being, and he has entrusted a large portion of his personal collection to Freestone Vintage Tackle. Per has become a dear friend, and I am honored to be representing these items. I will be listing a number of rods and reels in the coming months that will be of great interest. Items belonging to Per will be noted in their descriptions. I will also be handling the remainder of Tom Clark’s extensive and varied collection; these items will be noted as such.

Keep an eye on the site and especially the “Latest Offerings” page as I start to list things. I strong recommend signing up for my newsletter, it’s the best way to get a first look at upcoming tackle. I send about 1 email per month, and I will never sell your information. You can subscribe by clicking here.

In addition to these two collections, I am constantly looking for new and interesting angling items. I am actively seeking consignments of high-end fly tackle, and I am happy to purchase items outright as well. I can always be reached at nate@freestonevintagetackle.com or call/text 406-475-0900.

Tight lines,

Nate
