How many reels are too many??

[Reels_penn4life]

I have about 75 vintage reels now . I
also need to show this to my wife,"see my collection is comparatively modest " 

I think I have over 75 in 710 greenies alone. I had way more. But sold off most. Focused on Penn Mitchell Luxor and some others. Airex interested me due to being the first USA made spinning reels. It's a love few understand. Hated history in school. But fishing history. Can't get enough.

I need to show my wife these pictures for some perspective. I have a problem, but it's fairly well managed.

I tell my wife. Better than booze and women. Plus I'm home and she knows where to find me. In the middle of that little room.

Mebbe not you; I have to get mods to right mine often as not. Sure, sell some. You will look at the available space and buy more. Trust me on that; I've been saying it for decades.

Now I have to cancel my actual fishing vacation next week and stay home to dust my reel shelves after seeing yours.

Haaaa. Mine are quite dusty too. Yeah. I cleared space. Then added more when I sold. Same with my lures. It's a great wholesome lifestyle. It's beyond a hobby.
