I know a few individuals are wanting current pictures of the collection. I did manage to get out all the reels I've recently purchased.

Daron:  The first step is to admit you are powerless against an ad for a reel on ebay.  To truly recover from the addiction you must send me a 10/0.  When I receive it I will pray for you.   :D  Dominick

Step 2: "come to believe that there exists a power greater than yourself that can restore you to sanity"

"We admitted we were powerless over obsessively buying reels, and our bank balances had become unmanageable..."

A-yuh... Been there, doing that.  :P

Nice stuff, Daron.  As I know you are a "Big Reel Guy" I was wondering what the heck you are doing with the small 180 and 155's?  But I see you answered my question in your last post.

Funny you mentioned Crown Royal bags, a friend gave me a Bank Of America money bag filled with Penn reels in Crown Royal bags. One big spinner, 2 Jigmasters, Three 113H's. Most were dated when they had line put on last.

That's my alternative to making a spread sheet Brendan. I label each one with the mods I've did to that reel and when the line was put on, overall condition and so forth. I use post its and a bread tie. Wala! Hillbilly Spreadsheet! Plus, it keeps them from getting scratched up. ;)
