List Of Names for Montague Generic/Trade Reels

Post by bassman77 »

Might anyone direct me to a list of names used by Montague for Generic/Trade reels. I have a partial list from Phil White. Are there any others to which you might refer me?

Thank You.

Don Champion is the Montague King these days and I'm sure has a complete list...maybe already posted somewhere. However, I will shamelessly post the list of bait casters that I have that are, in fact, for sale to those in need. A couple of these are probably not montague, as indicated:

1. Bu Rem
2. Louisvill Casting reel
3. Bullard & Gormley Green Lake (has a Shakes look?)
4. the Lincoln
5. St Claire
6. VL&A Club Special
7. VL&A Proessional
8. VL&A (only) 60 yd
9.The Expert Casting Reel (has a Shakes look?)
10. Rich-Con Professional
11. St Louis Casting
12. VL&A Special
13. Abbie & Imbrie Riverside Reel (has the free spool lever on face plate)
14. King Pennel Trade Mark
15. Brooklure Precision Built (Montague?)
16. Mayfair jeweled
17. Pennel Special Trade Mark
18. Pennel The Tournament
19. Field Special
20. Beaver
