Antique Reel

Antique Reel

1957 - 1960 these things were made. Still works well, and landed more fish down at Golden Bay over the weekend than any other, thanks to the deft touch of my youngest daughter Emma.

Its the father-in-law's reel, he found it buried in the back yard believe it or not. He did it up and it works a treat.
Will be taking it up to the Monte's to try and stop a big GT next year.Wink
