Hillie isn't one to sit around doing nothing, except when he has a fishing pole in his hand. So when he retired and had more time to fish, he noticed a lack of quality spinners on the market. To keep himself busy he started doing something he had been doing since he was a child, making his own spinners and lures. No longer just out of tins and jam lids, but with quality american steel parts. To pay homage to his heritage, he has also created a recycled collection, finding a second use for materials such as bottle caps and bullet shells.
