kind of an experiment

[john elder]

fellow posted on Joes for a tournament reel ID. i suspect it will get a better audience over here and told him so, although all you folks may be like me and swim in both ponds. At any rate, thought I'd see if I can steal the url for the post elsewhere and drop it here, just for grins.

http://orcaonline.org/images/pixel.gif ... 73490.html well, probably not clickable, based ... pastable! address is right, but getting forbidden error when you click on it...paul or someone...is there a trick that makes this type of thing work?

Here is a link to the reel I would like ID and history, thanks, Jim.

Jim,
You gotta tell us what it says on the side (glare obscures the wording) and if there are anyother markings, unusual features, etc., etc. or maybe more pictures? A funky reel for sure.

Jim,
Yes, we need more information and a few better pictures. I captured the picture, sprinkled a ton of my magic dust in it and still can't make out what the headplate says. Sure is neat though. Looks to me hand/home made. (?)

Jim: That first pic you had on joes that disappeared was much better. At any rate..Harvey and all, the headplate has the letters "RTR" and the namd Shoal Creek on it.
