Interview by Zach Matthews - The Itinerant Angler

Juracsik's life can only be properly described with one word: epic. Like Odysseus cast adrift from a country in ruins, Ted wandered Europe's Cold War refugee camps before finding his way to New York City. Listen to his remarkable journey from Hungarian-speaking soccer player and tool and die machinist all the way to one of the USA's top fly reel designers founding the famous Tibor reel company, and told in his own distinctive voice."
