Nice collection...at some point, you better get to using and not just building.

Wow!   Please get more pics of that little red reel.   Looks like it might be a Accuratized 501.

Thanks guys. I use 'em all but not enough. My favorite is that 501 red jigmaster. That one has the stainless bridge sleeve, accurate 5:1 gears and the smoothie drags. That one went together perfect. I love building these and love fishing them.

Here's a couple more. My other favorite..... Penn squidder conversion. Shown next to a Jvariancr 4/0 Penn.

Can't wait for the double dogs.

That's the bridge Alan/Pro Challenger is  making that's not out yet. I am pretty sure it is stainless. He said it would be a month or two. The photo is from previous  post . My reel only has your stainless bridge sleeve, stainless yoke and accurate gears. I see I stated "stainless bridge" but I only have a stainless sleeve....I corrected post..
