Shakespeare Fishing Reels For Sale

An avid fisherman of 27 years, William Shakespeare, Jr. patented his innovative idea for a level-wind reel in 1896. Found in nearly every fishing reel to date, the man saw enormous success with this new product. A year later, he hired a staff of 12 and founded the William Shakespeare, Jr. Company. A name change in the mid-1900s proved to catapult the company’s success. The Shakespeare Company had more than 5,000 dealers who specialized in their products by 1920. A series of revolutionary products and features were then developed by the company whose sole focus was fishing rods, reels and gear. The 1950s gave the Shakespeare Company an opportunity to produce other items such as: radio antennas, golf club shafts, pool cues and archery equipment. In the late 1960s, Shakespeare acquires Pflueger Company and a decade later creates the Ugly Stik tubular fishing rod. The company continues to see success with future lines of Spincasting Reels.
