Never seen this reel discussed on the site. Sturdy reel and well made. Small main and pinion though.
It cleaned up nicely.

That's a Japanese reel rebranded as a Shakespeare. The same reel had many names -- Dolphin, etc. Not a bad reel -- lots of stainless steel -- but not quite a Penn which it was made to imitate.
