I am not sure about posting so if this is in the wrong place, sorry. I am new to the forum and to introduce myself to you all, I would like to say that I am not a collector. I do like to work on reels and take them fishing at some point. I am in Central California and mostly fish for bass and crappie. Right now I seem to have a lot of Mitchell reels, but mostly just a jumble of reels I purchased for eBay and Amazon. I am looking forward to learning more from the many experts on this forum. Tim

Hi, how "centeral" in CA are you?  Some people think Suckramento is Northern CA, I think Redding is.
Hi, my name is Lee and I have a fishing gear problem.

I've lived around the Modesto area most of my life. Funny though, San Francisco is thought to be northern California and Sacramento is north of that.

Yup, in my mind central CA is from the north of the grapevine to Redding.
