Default New Reel

Well I had been looking at this reel for a long time on ebayUK and almost pulled the trigger several times, but couldn't stomach the exchange rate and shipping so I held off.

Last night I walked into the tackle shop for the Fish tagging class and peered into the reel case and what do I see, but the same exact reel for only $169.

Needless to say I pulled the trigger in a New York second! Glad I waited as I saved some $$$$ for sure.

Put 245 yards of 14# line on it and now I'm waiting to go make a birds nest of it.

Don't know exactly what rod I am putting it on yet, as I have sold a few here over the past few weeks and now actually have more reels then rods to put them on. Guess I need some more built, eh!
