Title: G'day from Bendigo, Australia
Post by: ron.dunn on May 07, 2019, 02:13:08 AM
Ron Dunn here, from inland Australia.

I'm fascinated by odd-ball reels that involve sidecast and/or multiplier features, and I generally prefer freshwater-sized reels to salt. My favourites to date are the Lou Meyer Flo-Line, Grice & Young Orlando and derivatives, and the Crouch reel that was made in the 50s close to where I live.

I came upon this forum by search, and I've been lurking/reading for several months already.

Welcome, Ron, from Minnesota USA.

You may very well like the weird, unusual, etc. spinning reel posts that are ongoing for some months.

Hi Ron
I live in Queensland and my wife has some relatives who live in Bendigo. Her cousins husband uses 2 Sea Martin reels that you may be familiar with. He uses them for surf casting.
Welcome to the site. You can enjoy and learn a lot here.
