Leave the gun.  Take the cannolis.

There are two things I don't like about fishing.  Getting up early in the morning and boats.  The rest of it is fun.

So I finally got hold of a magnifying glass, took a close look, and behold! It is definitely the work of some long-vanished jokester who, for reasons which will remain forever unknown, decided to etch a crude 1950's-style flying saucer into the Bakelite of his reel:

Maybe he was memorializing something he saw...  ::)  In any case, I sure would've liked to fish with this guy... clearly he was WAY out in left field! (But to some extent, aren't we all??)  :D

~A~

I don't suffer from insanity... I enjoy every minute of it!  :D

I like that, yes we are all in "Left" Field, except Republicans, they are in "Right" Field. ;D

But, there is another consideration. Something that in my "Left Field" mind must be given a certain amount of credibility. That is, that just maybe, possibly  ::), another one of these will appear, with the exact same "Alien Craft" molded into the side plate. That will be a Game Changer. :o :o :o

Perhaps he was able "to boldly go where no man has gone before."  Though "highly illogical."  * Star Trek :) Dominick

Mike,
  Molded into the plate would be different than this one that's scratched into the plate. Yes, I know you were kidding ;D
Aiala, enjoy that "far out" reel.

I have not failed.  I just found 10,000 ways that won't work.

Sooooo......we should disregard scratchings??

I Agree, all those scratchings on paper are just scratchings and we should negate the written word.

I for one think its a message from beyond.
Our Alien watchers are telling us to disregard all other worthless persuits and stick to fishing.
life's pretty dull without fishing

I'm going on the hunt for a 113 4/0 (black plates) for my collection.  Does anyone have pictures of the earliest version of the side plates?  Also, was there a version that had the feature of changing the drags from the outside like the 113H?
Thanks
Jeff

Check out Page 2 of this posting . Mike's 4/0 shows the side plates that are unique to the first year of 4/0 production .

By any chance are you a Trekkie Dominick ??? :o

No Joe there is an assortment of trivial junk floating around in the brain.  Sometimes it comes to the fro when needed.  Most of it is useless.  I don't think I watched more than 3 or 4 shows ever.  Dominick

There is indeed (e.g. Medusa), but Captain Kirk battled a Gorn;)
