No Accurate plates came double dogged. I doubt that it has double dogs as you would have to cut the plates to install the doubles which would remove some of the anodizing leaving it succeptable to corrosion. But it's always possible that someone created a double dog bridge plate, but doubtful. We'll find out next week.

Ok good to know! I obviously have no idea what I'm talking about so just ignore me  :D

It sure would be nice to find diamonds in your gold mine.  ;D ;D

I so hope your right Rudy, this will be fun to follow😁
I'm sure you will keep us up to date!!

Double dogs would be how many clicks/1 handle turn if alternating? 16?
Fishing tackle is an art form and all fish caught on the right tackle are"Gfish"!

Only with a 8 tooth sleeve. 20 with a 10 tooth sleeve.

Good job on the reel and having Rudy service it.  Looking at the handle nut shows it's a 116 part number....a 6/0 for sure.....Bill
It may not be very productive,
but it's sure going to be interesting!

I got curious so I went out into the garage and turned the handle.......

40 clicks per 1 rotation

So I'm assuming it's a 10 tooth gear making it a 4:1 gear ratio?

I peeled off all the mono and the spool looks in like new condition with no corrosion! I also turned on the clicker for the first time and it sounds to me like this reel has a double dog AR system in it already....

Do old school 6/0 come with a double dog AR stock?

Turn the clicker off - then count the clicks per rev ;)

Gotcha! Like i said a few comments above....I'm an idiot and don't know anything about these reels so just ignore me  ;D

RowdyW

The main & pinion gears don't click. The clicking is from the gear sleeve teeth & dog. To check gear ratio you make one turn of the handle & count the revolutions of the spool with the drag at least partialy engaged. The clicker button on the left side is just an alarm to let you know that a fish is pulling line and is turned off while fighting the fish.

Not sure why all the speculations, opening the reel will tell you what you have.
I could bet you don't have a 10 tooth ratchet, or double dogs, the reel will show you that.

Forget about all the reasons why something may not work. You only need to find one good reason why it will.

There sure are a lot of crystal balls being looked into. All will be revealed as soon as I receive it. (I don't use a crystal ball)  ;D ;D

 Great find Pj

Btw, there is a way to tell which model by looking the tail plate screw pattern. Don't need a crystal ball to say it's a 114h

Once Rudy is done with it you will be the master of your domain, along with plenty of style points !! Hard to top "form &function" all in one reel like this for buck and a quarter
