Post by Holtz »

Does anyone have any info on a South Bend model 65-A spincast reel? I would like to know what year it first came out?
Thank You

Hey, Lou! (Just kidding - still suffering from when he left South Bend. Also just getting even for all the John Madden stuff I get.) Anyway, the 65A emerged in 1964 and lasted into the 70's so it's quite common. Prices are low exept for new in a box which may bring $30.

OK, now I know you're not the real Lou Holtz. He would never have been so brief! Glad I could help. Jim
