Jonathan since you like it so much and you got roped into delivering it to me from Fred I'll let you have first crack at giving it a couple test drops..... After I put it through its paces first of course ;D ;D
Here's a couple zoomed in pic...
Nice 8)
Marc..
That reel is Sick! ;)
Man, that's a nice build! Nice color on those plates! Good luck getting some blood on it!
No prob PJ.
I would love to give it a go.
Reels got some sick freespool.....
Hope you guys give it a good go --
When you return, Jonathan -- I will have a SS OC style star to install for PJ, plus I will give it a post fishing once over, cleaning, and lubrication -- plus new line if needed.
Then I will send it to PJ in untouched, but fish tested condition.
So don't worry about the reel -- it should be fine with anyone who wants to give it a shot.
Best,
Fred
Jonathan please feel free to put the reel through its paces for me but you have to share with anyone else who wants to try it too......
If the jackpot winning fish is caught on my reel I expect half the prize ;D ;D ;D

Your reel has not been fished yet -- Jonathan did not feel right about using it, so he brought it back to me before he left for Morro Bay.
Installed Adam's SS OC style star.
Will get it off to you sometime this week.
Will have to coordinate a trip to the Post Office when they are open -- and will be addressing trees every day likely through Thursday.
Best,
Fred
