Title: 113h hotrod
Post by: Sharkb8 on March 07, 2020, 11:44:58 AM
This is the first time I have hotroded a reel the parts come from Rays collection,the frame and side plates I got a few weeks back the spool came on Friday. Took two 4/0 apart for parts  so it has steel main gear and 5 stack drag .thinking of up grading more when I can afford it.

Big start to hotrodding reels Kim! I like the all silver colour - good looking and practical, the scratches don't show as much after a bit of use.

Great looking reel! You will be surprised how strong the 5 stack is with that set up.
