One of my good buyers brought me a couple of grocery bags of reels yesterday.
2 decent Mitchell 300's, a clean Mitchell 400, a pristine Mitchell 408, a nearly new DAM Quick 265 Microlite, a locked up DAM Quick 330, a TINY Langley 850A Spinlite ultralight (smaller than a Daiwa 1000!), a Herters tiny ultralight, a Compac tiny spinner, a Daiwa 1000C that appears new, a Daiwa low profile baitcaster, an old South Bend baitcaster, and (2) brand new Shimano Spirex reels —- 1000 & 2000. Couple of Fenwick rods, and a blue Garcia Conolon ultralight at 4'2".
Might be a couple more in the bags.
Paid $240 & a $30 pizza at Me n' Ed's.
More stuff to get rid of.
Best, Fred
Your downsizing efforts go about as well as mine, except your scale is much larger. Do appreciate you keeping those old reels in circulation, spinning smoothly, and catching fish.
I've got 8 of those various Langley 850 models, a Spinette Dlx 850, Spin-Lite Dlx 850, Spin-Lite Dlx Field Test 850, Spin-Lite Dlx 850B, Spin-Lite Dlx 852B, A&F 150-Three and 2 Zebco 850s. They're cute little reels. The A/R rubber flaps are usually old, brittle, falling apart and have to be replaced, though.
