Cases and cases of lures and reels. Look up and you'll see tackle boxes hung on the wall, turn another corner and you come upon a bass boat. With over 25,000 pieces in the collection, it's a good bet that if it's related to fishing, it's probably in the museum.
- The White collection is considered the world's most complete tackle collection.
- The Snyder Reel, the only one not in the Snyder family, is one of the premier pieces in the museum and valued at $50,000.
- White's first lure, purchased at the age of eight, is James Heddons Crazy Crawler and still in the collection.
- The entire collection is cataloged in Karl White's three books, Fishing Tackle Antiques & Collectibles and available to purchase in a boxed set from the museum gift shop, price $114.95.
