..... here's a picture of my humble salt water reel collection.

(https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-x-45Uku1inM/UC8ajZaZCWI/AAAAAAAAACQ/rrDBFOsuYds/s800/IMG_0223.JPG)
Front to back, left to right: (all Penn except the Newell) 9MF, Newell 220-5, 85, 285; 501, 500, 111, 113H; 113THL, 113HN, 114H, 50V. The only reels I bought NIB are the 113H and 113HN.

113THL = Tanked 113HL

Nice collection there Rob. I see they are mostly working reels just like my old collection of Penn favourites.

Very nice Rob...and all loaded. That's just about all you need to catch anything in the water.
I need to talk you into at least one nice spinner, Penn of course ;)

Thanks, Kamu, Tom and Sal. I did forget my spinner - a Daiwa Regal XiA4000 for surf fishing. :-\ Not much surf here, though. ;D

All loaded but the 85. Yeah, all working reels.

You're darned right, it's been long enough. ;)  That is an impressive line of reels.  It looks like you have three sizes of Kolekar grips.  Do you have a favorite size?

I think all-around the 4/0 is the best for the hams I hold them with and my favorite. But I put the 6/0 on the 50, 114H, and 113H, and 2/0 on the 111 (because of the low ratio mainly) and on the Newell. I changed the 113H to a 4/0.

Thats the nice beginning to a collection,  ;D.  I wish I had just half those reels.  Nothing like a good Penn Senator, they are by far my favorite reel of all.
