    64 this October.

    I didn't buy a kids truck, I bought a compact truck because I no longer need a full size trucks to do the things that need to be done.

    The force is strong Carl!

    I have a friend who used those reels for bass fishing ( before his health failed ) and he really liked them.

    Well, my stove collection takes up wall space along most of one side of my garage and suitcase type stoves a six foot area on the other side, about two shelves high. Lanterns and lamps next to the suitcases use another six feet, head high.

    Afternoon all:
    Welcome Joisey, yup, pull up a chair on the porch and join in.

    Which one? the The Zebco Cardinal 3's, 4's, 6's, and 7's were made in Sweden and are excellent spinning reels except for the design flaw which causes the spools to break. I have the aftermarket aluminum spools on the ones I use which solves that problem.

    Duane, those reels don't take up that much space, it's the other stuff that does!

    One thing about us old folk. We didnt' get this far in life being stupid, and even at 60 plus years old, we know enough to use the mens room, not the room of the sex with which we identify.

    I'm reminded of something that I heard years back... Never lock horns with an old man. He moves slower than you because he hurts. He won't dance around in a circle for half an hour threatening you. He'll just kill you and go take his nap.
