That's like lipstick on a pig.       Rudy

Ball bearings on the outside of a reel. Should be easy to service.

Probably early Native American, they used to put beads on everything.  Where was it dug up?

That person has dressed up a bunch of 300's.  It's their art form and each one is different.  I like the ones with rhinestones better.

Looks like African art, lots of bling.

[gstours]

And a red one for yourself.  Nice.

Thanks, Steve. Now I get it. At first, I was thinking it was a custom job for a young kid, probably (he said at the risk of being labeled male chauvinist) a young girl. After having seen the second I recall having seen others in the past. We all have to find some way to express ourselves.

I thought we were doing that with the custom reels we have built

That is definitely different. However I can't see myself as owning one or even fishing with one like that. Looks too gaudy. Should have left the classic a classic. JMO
