Xmas present

Brilliant casting reel, mine is still mint after years of use. Just bought two of them off Ebay a few weeks ago for £60. They had a few marks on them and one needed a new drive shaft as the last few threads had been stripped off. They were absolutely full of grease but with a good clean up the two of them are running perfectly. My son has claimed one of them and he is over the moon with it and I now have a spare. Look after it and and it will give you years of excellent casting and easy fishing.

Only got it on the spur of the mo mate while getting some bait, heard they were hard to get now and when I seen it in the display cabinet I just couldn't resist.lol.

Right, I am now ganna put some clothes on this swedish moll so she can accompany me down the pier tomorrow.

I will let you know if she buc*s back, and how she performs overall

That's what a meant in me other post buddy, cannit beat original Abu's, as these days true Swedish built ones are hard to come by, as thesedays most reels including abu's are Chinese.

A put me hands up my 7HT Mag is Japanese built but the Japanese seemed to know how to make too quality reels, as do the Swedish and American's (when penn reels where made in the usa).

Hope your prezzie brings u great distances and many fishies!

I must admit i also have a thing about Abu 6500. The old green mags make me go a bit weak at the knees.

Just finished putting line on the bitch, It's a small spool, no chance of fishing on with this one if I get caught up or crack off in mid flight. Not to worry though mate, I've also relined my trusty turbo, she has served me very well in the past, in fact I may put them in the same bed tonight and if I hear any lesbo carry on through the night I'll hoy the slosh 30 in to sort it.

Took her for a spin the day, very nice, bearing in mind I was fishing 44 with a westerly coming in at a canny rate of knots. I just know that this swedish chucking machine has got more in it. Blocks out, spool set totally free and still coudn't birdy it. Mind, it was hard enough just to stand up and chuck the swedish slapper.

I just can't wait to give her a good wacking when the weather is better.
Oh, by the way, EL grand. Bait used was frozen crab.
