Fellas,
I landed my hands on a 4 1/2 in. × 2 in wide brass salmon reel. It's estimated to be around 100 years old. It needs some work. I sent Bill Archuleta an email and spoke with him and I will include his response. I hope he does not mind. It has no drag mechanism and free spools. The screws are stripped, which requires a lot of work that Bill estimated around 350 on his end. I'm not interested in having it repaired, so I thought I'd put it on the pages to see if anyone out there that may be savvy enough to repair themselves, or use as a collectors piece, etc. Asking 150 shipped.
See pics below.
Cheers,
Mike
