Little Winner

[OCauto]

Just got this one today

It's a Montague reel. Nice! I love those coined edges on hard rubber reels.

I like everything about it. I have been waiting and watching for one in this condition.

Al - That's a great example of the Winner reel. Here's a pair of Winners I have, including the Jeweled version on the right, which I acquired through my shrewd bidding at the ORCA silent auction in Branson. Well, it wasn't shrewd as much as I bid higher than a couple other guys, so I own it and it's now happy to hang out with the other Winner. They are both Montagues, of course, but note the different style of grip and different counter-balance knobs. Unfortunately, my silent auction Winner is a little bit beat up, but both white jewel end caps are intact and the reel works fine, so I was happy to win this Winner.
Enjoy!
