I'll jump in, this is just my Halibut rods with Penn 113H's.  From Left to right there's two stock, one with a Jvariance narrow frame kit, 4:1 gears, and "pink" line for my wife, then a Newell narrow frame kit with 4:1 gears.

Oldschool, I am your long lost son. Take me home... That's a lot of reels and rods.

Probably too many if there is such a thing. I need to hot rod and sell off a few so i can buy more...

Here's the latest addition to my (growing) collection: a brace of classic 500S Jigmasters I rescued from eBay. (I love how these older reels are invariably described as being in "great working condition", which evidently means that the internals are a nice shade of green, locked up with disintegrated drag washers, and packed full of gluey brown grease circa 1980... ick!

So why bother? Because I find the satisfaction of bringing them back to full functioning life to be one of life's great pleasures; much more, really, than buying a brand-new reel. And oh boy, I can't wait to try them out!

Looking Good Aiala! I've been getting on the Jigmaster bandwagon myself.

Aiala: That is a fine looking brace of reels alright.  Good job.  If there is such a thing as a wizardess you would be the wizardess of the desert.    Dominick

Aiala, nice reels but a little too big for sand dabs.  Dominick

Oops... forgot the 99s! (Don't have any 501/6s, though.)
