Holy Carp indeed. You Sir, are a winner! Gonna add a little Higgins to this Schwinn. This is my vintage J.C. Higgins fiberglass rod with nickel plated Shakespeare reel and a pistol grip. Once again I am a sucker for bakelite.
Now if I just had somewhere to keep my catch.....
Just one?

Very cool! I love the plot twist in the last week of the build off! 
Well played sir!
Well played sir!
I have been watching your build closely and noticed that I am not the only one holding back on full pics till its done. Such suspense! I did however start out with a big hint when I named the bike.Very cool! I love the plot twist in the last week of the build off!
Very cool, loving the fishing theme!
Luke.
Luke.
....I 'caught' that ML!
Hahahha! Yeah! That bike is the c-reel deal!
....Hoodride....aka "Lunker".
So with all this fishing gear attached where does one put there reel
Love the old creels, so cool.
I don't know why but it made me think of "The man in the black suit", a short story by Stephen King, basically a more modern version of Hawthorne's "Young Goodman Brown", and that's a compliment by the way. I'm going to have to take my kid fishing this week. Hope we don't meet an ageless stranger in the woods.
I ramble, can't wait to see the overall view of this build.

Here is a little idea I came up with but it only works on REALLY rusty bikes.
Final pics are in the can! I am on the road through the deadline but I will find time to get them up in the finished thread . In the meantime...
