More than 40 years of work
Behind the archive lies over four decades of collecting and research into ABU's history. Hundreds of fishing reels have been dismantled, documented and compared to map the development from the very first models to today's reels.
The goal is to preserve Swedish sportfishing history and make it available to collectors, anglers and everyone interested in ABU's unique heritage.
