The only person lucky enough to get a Proto Type 114 N is Sal. He must pick them from the Clouds.

Why is everybody picking on my friend Sal? He only has his head in a cloud.

Is there really such an Animal? a 114-N?
I checked the Clouds and didn't see one.

I don't know of a 114H with black plates.

I have seen some on ebay. Not many, but some. Supposedly somewhat rare.

What's your take on this typo plate dayone? I'm not talking a black 114H. I mean the mislabeled plate. Is there something more to this? No offense Bryan, but I don't buy your explanation.

I never said I knew the answer. It my guess based on the time period.

Like I said Bryan, No offense. That was a better answer than I had!

Still no response from the seller. I just might have to make the hour and a half drive to Naples to check it out in person. Although I found a Penn 9/0 in better shape than the 900h for about the same money. Decisions decisions

I never heard back from the seller. I guess the reel will remain a mystery. So far I am 0 for 3 on Craigslist. I missed the 900h, a 9/0 and a 10/0. The 10/0 was in mint condition for $180 and I called 20 minutes after it was posted.

That too bad Bro! A Mint 10/0 is the Holy Grail!
You hang in there, persistence prevails!

I'm sure all of you big-reel guys have been keeping an eye on this: http://www.ebay.com/itm/321388987754?_trksid=p2055119.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

Yes, it's on my watch list. I'm afraid to think what the last minute bidding will take it up to. Last month l missed a 12/0 for $128 in the last seconds due to a slow server

Shark Hunter · May 02, 2014, 05:43:29 AM

I have been ignoring the fleabay lately. The prices of 9,10 and 12/0's has gotten pretty stupid!
Probably a fault of my own.

I have enough to last me the rest of my life, but I refuse to pay what these people are asking. The 12 and 14/0 are still in production and still made in the USA!
I have 5 each of the 10's, 12's and 14's. I lost count on the 9/0's.

fsrmn · May 02, 2014, 07:57:37 AM

If you ever decide to part with one of those 9 or 10/0 keep me in mind.
