Where have you been Albert? I hope all is well. Could you post a pic of the inner side of that reel?

Good to see you back Albert.
I'm still enjoying that big BeastMaster you sent down a few years back.
All the best mate, Justin

Btw, someone local showed a custom handle you made.  Rainbow colors.  Looked nice but didn't get any details

Haha - that was such a rookie move on my part, throwing it out with the packaging!

Hey Albert!
Good to see you old friend. ;)

Yes, you're right, I am old, hence the name.

How's the Everol(d)?  Ever use the 20/0?  After thinking a lot about it, I decided to not dive into that as it would be way too much for what I need and the weight would probably kill me.  Even the 130 size reels are getting heavy and are likely as much as I need even for the largest fish I handle.  If you have an extra 12/0 size hanging around you'd like to get rid of I'd be interested.

Albert,
My 12/0's are all custom, and they have my name on them.
I gave $599 for this reel plus shipping.
I can sell it to you for that price and I will pay the shipping.
It is an older 9/0 single speed, but she is a looker.
If you decline, there will be no hard feelings.
I will have no problem keeping it.
If you are hell bent on a 12/0 2 speed. I can get you one, but you know the price.
There is some small scuff marks, in that last pic above the gearcase on the side plate.
Otherwise, she is mint with all the hardware and paperwork in the original box.
