Ted - That is a beautiful reel.  I see it has a non-stock handle, did you also do any mods/swaps to the internals? - john

The 68 was the easy part. I'm going on record to say that Newell MADE a spool that would fit. Make that thing 5:1 and it would scream back in, it would take a long fish run to reduce the effective diameter of the spool.
Hawaiians love you
