1960's Rogue M150 spin reel/ stripdown and refresh!/ Completed!

[Woodbilly]

Very nice reel .  The outer numbered ring is ramped for fine adjustments ?   Beside the screw for base setup .

Yes. The collar ring is to set the drag at inrements from 1-10. 10 being the max drag.

Tha trigger body side screw has a spring attached to it, that when screw is rotated, it puts pressure down on the trigger base, via the spring, which in turn, puts pressure on the collar ring.
Adjustable from complete free spin of collar to actually locking the collar in place at set drag rate, where it can't be modified.
Pretty cool little add on

Took the freshly stripped and restored Rogue M150 out today and my, my, was it sweet!!

Took a few catches to get the floating disc drag dialed in, but once set, performed great.

Awesome feel to this reel and trigger drag is pretty dang cool for playing fish.

This old girl is definitely going to see some regular use!!

Caught 81 for 25 nice keepers!!

Excellent work on that Rogue 150, WB!

The engineering, materials, and thought that went into those reels is impressive.

If that reel was made to the same standards today —- it would be a $400 reel.

Best, Fred
