I need some help on who made this GS Abbey&Imbrie Biscayne for them. The hard rubber is a little ruff. The reel is only a 200 to 250 yard reel but the gears are just under a half inch thick. It has one thumb screw take apart then unscrew the front plate from the reel. For its size it is a very heavily built reel. I know I should know the company that made this reel for A&I. I have had this on my desk for a few weeks looking at it
