In one of my gun-parts drawers, I often push this old reel aside to get to whatever else I may be looking for. This reel deserves more respect.
I bought it when I was 12 years old, which is just shy of fifty years ago. I still remember paying 12-bucks for it, brand new, and I was proud. Used it for many years, including many years as an adult. It's still a great reel.
I often wonder what will become of many of the things I've got stashed away. Although I raised my kids to hunt and fish, they have no interest in either now. And although many of us slightly older chaps appreciate this kind of stuff, I can't imagine the younger generation ever will.
WAYNO.
