Wow! That is the biggest Carp I have ever seen Benni!
I don't even know what a Citazen Carp is, but I'm guessing it is big as a Citizen.
My Biggest Carp catches were loaf of bread size.
That is a true Monster. :o
Good Job Brother!

Hello All,

My new to me flea market find. Looks like it could use just a little work. Time for a disassembly and dunk the chrome in the vinegar.

Everything works, but lots of green on this one. Just had to rescue it, plus I didn't have a 6/0.

Looks like a good project !!  I *need* a 6/0, too ....plus anything any bigger !! Never know when you might need some heavy artillery  ;)
There's nothing wrong with a few "F's" on your record....Food, Fun, Flowers, Fishing, Friends, and Fun....to name just a few !

Its always fun. Started off with the smaller reels. Still amazes me that these things still function after so many years of use.

This one still has the original thick drags and a felt washer as a seal. Not sure how to deal with that. May just have to reuse the original felt.

    I have a #9 that just crawled in from the mailbox , that needs lots of that "elbow grease", too !  Not much in the way of "corrosion"...but it's pretty dull. Must have sat in the sun a long time !

Don't know to much about the 9's, but I'm picking that one will really scrub up well.
      Looking forward to seeing the finished Pic's
