WHY OLD SCHOOL........
Ive messed around with quite a few different reels for my coarse fishing,had a few shimano reels,a whisker and a drennan series 7 reel.You could say ive a reel fetish,which is probably true with swapping and changing.I started looking round at early model reels,these are from the 90,s and were around the £70-£100 Mark when they were produced.They are a very reliable reel to use,no spool wobble and in near perfect condition.Im not saying these reels are better than whats out there today,but i have found the reels that complete my set ups.I also have plenty of spools,original box,s and even the bags.
