Title: New addition
Post by: Jerseymic on November 30, 2016, 08:12:28 PM
Hi everybody,

After a bit of a lean time I have found another addition to my collection, a 10/0.

I was a bit wary of going for it with line on the spool, fortunately it turned out okay, all I had to replace were the rings.

As I received it.

And back together

I am happy with the way it turned out.

Thank you David, but this is going nowhere near water :)

It will be on the shelf with the others.

Great work Mike - well done!
The 10/O is a fantastic reel - I love their 'squareness' and balance.
Cheers, Justin

I agree with all, the 10/0 is a special size.  Mike, you must have quite a nice collection now...

Thanks again guys.

Dan, I have exactly 50 in my collection now, what I have are what I call mostly the common ones found in the U.K.

It is getting increasingly difficult picking things up now, this 10/0 is only the second one I've seen since I started collecting nearly 4 years ago.

Mike.
