Haha nice as that one is, it only weighed in at 7.5lbs. It's not unheard of to get them in the 10-12lb+ range or even over 15lbs here. Still looking to catch one in the double digit range!

That's the thing isn't it. We must have every reel we want in pairs! In an ideal world I'd have a pair of P/G 344s, 447s, 550s. All built to the max of course.

What Jigmaster obsession??  

(But I think that's enough... for now.)

I was looking back to the beginning of this thread, my favorite, and wonder how much people's stands have changed since these photos. I know Aiala has hot-rodded at least half-dozen jiggy's, and Daron's kitchen table would collapse under the incremental increase of those I even know about (the Everols alone might do it). I only came in March 2015, and I think I've gone up about a hundred.

Yes. Orphans keep me awake at night. And then you can't very well let them sit around without matching sticks to sit on....

These collections are so impressive, I feel silly even posting my average/common reels. Maybe after I complete a few project reels I'll assemble a family photo. LOVE this thread!

you post up your collection regardless....it's YOUR collection. doesn't have to be hot rod to be unique or just something you like. Maybe not a Zebco 202 collection


That said, I do have 808's and 888's from the 70's as I used them as a kid. I posted pic on here somewhere lol

OK...ya got me there...great point! Here's some pics:

A drawer full of assorted conventionals.



Some Pfluegers.



A drawer full of Penn levelwinds.



My Squidder.



My Surfmaster.



My Jigmaster. This one is like a big block wagon...total sleeper! While it looks pretty harmless on the outside, inside it's all stainless. Pro Challenger double dog bridge, 5:1 gears, ss jack and yoke.

   Now you've opened a can of worms...hee hee! I'm a Zebco fan too. They made many fine products, but always seem to be remembered by that lowly 202. At any rate...here's a few Zebcos I fish.
   First photo, a Rhino RBCXL for flathead catfish. Second an 888 and a HawgSeeker for channel catfish. Last but not least, one of my all time favorite Zebcos, the 733 Hawg. Great gears, smooth drag, direct drive feature, bait clicker, and a star drag!

Man, those are some sweet reels ....and after all the drooling I need to quench my thirst on my "other" collection.
