Need Some Reel Help PLease

Post by Frayedknot »

Can someone tell me if this the correct reel for this box? My concern is the box states triple multiplying but the reel is only double multiplying. I hope the pic's show up. If not please e-mail me for them at Thanks, Bob Blalock (FATC)

Bob: This reel was mentioned briefly in the May issue of The Reel News. Ed Corwin has an example of the US Florida. His was an inexpensive Bakelite reel like yours but a 200 yard reel. If that is what your reel is, I'd say that it doesn't match the box. The box says nickel plated and 250 yards.
