I keep liking those little SX's, but I'm on a no more reels deal as of yesterday.

Nice collection you got there Lowprofile, should keep you busy with the few upgrades we have available, well, maybe just a tad more than a few

Nice reels Chris. I see they all have detachable handles and butts.
Davin is building my first detachable handle rod. A Stuart #4 on an igfa 80 blank.

Ha! I swore off buying reels last fall, then saw a deal on an SXJ, and fell off the wagon. See, I had been looking for a good, used SXJ before I took the pledge, so I had a ready-made excuse. As for the Squidders and Jigmasters I've bought since, ... one of these days I've got to climb back on that wagon.

All of them except the 1/0's have been modded in a few ways. I've been doing my own reels since I was 15. But yes, the 1/0's are going to get a full remodel. They shouldn't take long though.

They definitely have thier pros. Make sure you grease the seat and reel foot and pad the clamp. I use a cut section from a web belt.

I guess that's a little over half. You will notice some 1970's 808's right behind the Int rack...I ain't skeered

Nice!

Thanks! I'm about to go into the 117 in the next couple weeks and see what's up; never cracked it. I will likely be hitting you up for some advice.

I set up a photo booth for my wife to help with her ebay sales, so naturally, I had to test it out. My 113HLW:

Awesome pictures.nice collections .

Shark Hunter · November 03, 2015, 05:03:24 AM

That is one Nice HLW Adam.

Alto Mare · November 03, 2015, 11:44:33 AM

Wow Thor, I never saw this. Very nice collection. I wish you had a better pic though.

Adam, that 4/0 looks sweet. Your handles really make it. I would like you to increase the area by the mounting hole for the handle another 1/8"...if possible.
Very nice...

Thanks, Sal! Hard to get a good pic in dim garage; this winter I have to inventory and will be breaking up the collection for closer photos. Not a whole lot of what I would call plinth-worthy stuff, but some desirable nice pieces in there (just not so rare) and stuff I use. I try to put anything I have on a stick, lined and ready for use even if I know it won't be. I think that's just north of half of the collection but all I can get in the garage.
