danbouck Posted September 14, 2010 Report Share Posted September 14, 2010 A little while ago I found this reel at the cottage. Anybody have any idea what it is or how old it may be??? It still works fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OhioFisherman Posted September 14, 2010 Report Share Posted September 14, 2010 Can`t really tell by the picture alone, but the style to me would indicate 1930`s or earlier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muskieman Posted September 15, 2010 Report Share Posted September 15, 2010 (edited) I did some looking and it looks like a Montague "Indian" Other than the handle the look is very similar.

mercman Posted September 15, 2010 Report Share Posted September 15, 2010 looks like an old shakespeare spiral cast reel that my grandpa used to use.don't ya just love old stuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aplumma Posted September 15, 2010 Report Share Posted September 15, 2010 I think it is one of the old Ted Williams.... o wait never mind thats an outboard motor...It is a nice old reel though. Fun how we all look at it and think it is cool but their isn't a one of us that wishes to give up his new baitcaster to use it. I think it is a classic case of how fast technology has evolved the simple fishing reel. Art Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRT8 smoker craft Posted September 15, 2010 Report Share Posted September 15, 2010 Not sure how old but judging from the tangled line on it I positive it was used by a close relative of yours possibly you as a child Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
