a guy in work has picked up one of these reels and asked me to try and find out a bit of info on them. a google search hasnt shown up much apart from them being a pretty old reel.
does anybody know anything about them or have any idea if its worth anything?? he said it has a few scratches on it but nothing major,
cheers. |

155 and 200 are the same reel, except for the "one-screw-take-apart" feature.
The other thing is they don't have ball bearings but bushes instead, good casting reel but try and fit a larger handle off another penn reel
