I have a Tournament Wellworth casting reel ( Reel Co.) A1. My question is who made it. ORCA’s Bronson site has Star Reel by Bronson, listing a Tournament Wellworth. A couple old threads mention Winchester, Hendryx, and Shakespeare but with no solid answer that I could find. The reel has wood handles that look like they were painted white. Thank you for any and all help.

Re: Reel ID help
Wrong99 thank you for the help. Is the stamping on the foot and wood knobs a fairly standard feature on UH reels? Just trying to learn more. Thanks Bruce

Re: Reel ID help
Yes, both are common to nearly all their models.
