Mitchell 900.  The 900 was Mitchell's first skirted spinning reel, if I recall correctly. I never hear about these, but I sure like mine.

Shakespeare Ambidex 2400. Sentimental reasons with this one. My first spinner. Have caught many a bluegill and crappie with it.

Abu Cardinal 52. I don't own one but have always been interested in it. They are apparently a rarity. I should have grabbed one when I saw them listed in an early Bass Pro catalog way back around 1979.

Maybe I've answered before on this very old thread...  I like the Squidder 146 very much and get a lot of use out of it.  I have a soft spot also for the Penn Mag 970.  Also I've been customizing old Daiwa Sealine reels and they are growing on me. 
And you know that you're over the hill,
When your mind makes a promise that your body can't fill,
Doin' the old folks boogie and boogie we will,
'Cause to us the thought is as good as a thrill...

Maybe it should read "What's Your All Time Favorite Reel(s)?"

Fishing tackle is an art form and all fish caught on the right tackle are"Gfish"!
