I know a while back I said I was gonna make a thread about what I have of reels. Seeing as how I took the reels off the rods to put in the reel case just in case with this hurricane, I figured now is a good a time than ever to show case them for you.





From left to right, starting at the back on each row...

NIB Shimano Conquest 50

Shimano Conquest 50 with carbon fiber handle, carbontex drag, and RCS corks, spooled with 10lb Senshi.

Megabass IP68R, with Type R gears and spool, ZR bearings, spooled with 65# Power Pro.

Daiwa SV103XS, SLP SV105 spool, ZR bearings, Zion drag star, ZPi carbon fiber handle, Megabass hypercorks, spooled with 40# Power Pro.

Daiwa Zillion100HA, IP68R gears, gold PE special spool with fixed inductor, ZR bearings, Zillion Type R carbon fiber handle, Megabass hypercorks, spooled with 50# Power Pro Maxcuatro.

Shimano Core50MG7, Avail50RR spool, carbontex drag, ZR bearings, spooled with 10# Senshi.

NIB Shimano Aldebaran MG.

Shimano Aldebaran MG, MG7 gears, carbontex drag, Avail50RR spool, MG7 handle, Curado70 knobs, spooled with 20# Senshi.

Lews Tournament MB LFS, Lews 95mm carbon fiber handle, spooled with 50# Stren Braid.

Shimano Curado50E, Aldebaran spool, ZR bearings, carbontex drag, Avail handle, RCS cork knobs, spooled with 20# Senshi.

Shimano Scorpion XT1000, Yumeya 36mm spool, ZR bearings, Core50MG7 drag star, carbontex drag, spooled with 30# Daiwa J Braid.

So you can do the count of Shimanos vs Daiwas. Lol. And you can see I like the older Shimanos. What I dont have in the picture thats packed away for the move is a mint Shimano Bantam Curado greenie, NIB Shimano Curado100D, NIB Shimano Citica100DSV, and NIB Daiwa TD Fuego, and a few older Shimano Bantams from the 70s and 80s.

Enjoying retirement in the great Pacific Northwest.  I've turned into a fair weather angler.  Why do it today when I can do it tomorrow?

Pacific NW Ron

Then you posted the second picture....
Nice collection. As said before, a bunch of workhorse reels intended for a purpose.
TTK has spoken.

Thanks guys. There have been many that have come and gone over the years. Many that I would have loved to keep, but had to be sacrificed to fund others.
