Waterfront: Gems for Fishing

What fisherman wouldn’t fall hook, line and sinker for gear like this? These rods and reels are the creation of Italian craftsman Michele Nodari, whose company, Normic, bills itself as the "Ferrari of Fishing Equipment." The rod is carbon fiber, Kevlar and fiberglass. The guides are solid 18-karat gold. The dual-speed automatic reel features an 18-karat gold handle, clutch lever, pre-set drag and click. The push button can be in diamond or Swarovski crystal, and the click can be accented in ruby or emerald. With a price tag around $150,000 for the rod-and-reel set, don’t drop it overboard.
