We were looking forward to a nice little holiday break, but not in the form of our website getting hacked and shut down on Christmas Eve!
We can still fill all current orders, and for the moment if you need anything, please check our South Chatham Tackle eBay store.
Feel free to send a message too if you have questions or need help with anything!

Hi friends, our phone line has been knocked out yet again-- we currently have no access to emails or any phone messages received in the past week. We hope it will be fixed soon, but we have no definitive word from Brightspeed of when that will happen.

We have been having phone trouble since June 9th, and hope to have a repair appointment on July 11th. Please feel free to message us here, or email to info @ southchathamtackle dot com.

Our friend Doug at Blue Action Tackle dreamed up this Wind-On Leader Jig-- we make them in house and affectionately refer to it as The Blue Thing. Now available on our website:

Optional feet kit make this tool portable (optional feet are shown on jig in inset photo) and are available by checking the box before you add to your cart.  Feet come with stainless steel hardware and suction cup feet, so you can use your jig on virtually any smooth surface.

Wanted to share these photos of a customer's very organized work space area for his Motorized Reel Winder Unit. A perfect set up! (Note that there are some modifications to his Speed Spooler-it is very versatile.)
