Publications
The NFLCC has some of the finest publications available to any hobbyist or collector's club. The quality of our publications is superb in format, content, and photography. Paid Members receive a total of four publications each year.
NFLCC Gazette
The NFLCC Gazette is one of the finest publications available to any hobbyist or collector’s club. It is considered an invaluable, long-term source of information on various fishing tackle and their manufacturers. The quality is superb in format, content, and photography. Paid Members receive a total of four Gazettes each membership year: September, December, March, and June. We are also proud to offer our paid members online access to all prior issues via the NFLCC Bookshelf (login required).
The articles are submitted by members who have taken upon themselves the time and effort to document information about tackle and the companies that produced it. When published, this information becomes available to all members, broadening their knowledge in this interesting hobby.
Beginning with our September 2020 issue, major improvements were made to the NFLCC Gazette: Each issue is now 48 pages in length and in full color. It includes more lengthy and in-depth researched articles, many by members who have specialized in a particular aspect of collecting and researching antique tackle for many years and are considered among the most knowledgeable in the field. The quarterly Gazette still includes our calendar of events, regional show recaps, a “Can You ID?” section, and member advertising.
Our editor has provided the March 2021 issue of the NFLCC Gazette for you to sample.
Article Index
The NFLCC Article Index is a free reference tool that’s useful to both new and experienced collectors. It provides a comprehensive list of every article that’s been published in our Gazette and Magazine, along with the date and issue number.
Our Secretary/Treasurer maintains a small selection of back issues that are available for purchase.
