 Illingworth was supposed to be the first spinner but that reel predates him by twenty-five years.

Forget about all the reasons why something may not work. You only need to find one good reason why it will.

Hi, my name is Lee and I have a fishing gear problem.

I have all of the answers, yup, no, maybe.

Cooooool!😎 Welcome beforethereel!
Does the spool turn? It doesn't look like there's a rotor.
Fishing tackle is an art form and all fish caught on the right tackle are"Gfish"!

Looks like it does turn and the line roller oscillates using the drive gear.

Wow, what an interesting piece of reel history!

There's nothing wrong with a few "F's" on your record....Food, Fun, Flowers, Fishing, Friends, and Fun....to name just a few !

Leave the gun.  Take the cannolis.

There are two things I don't like about fishing.  Getting up early in the morning and boats.  The rest of it is fun.
