At the risk of going down yet another reel-accumulation rabbit hole, did Ofmer build private label reels beyond Eagle Claw taht I should be on the lookout for?
Pflueger Protege, (replaced by 1040), 1041 & 1042.
Montgomery Wards Hawthorn 60-6436-2000, 60-6436-A/3000, 60-6456, 60-6501, MW 60-6405 & MW 60-6436.
To name a few.
Thanks Tommy! More goodies to look for.
There's a 1042 on the bay right now, but it's dang near $100 and I can't justify it at the moment. How's that for timing?
