The first one I ever got was a zebco..... caught many a fish with those things.

I had a pocket fisherman, that was a piece of junk.

Beautiful!  :happy1:  Don't forget the Horrocks- Ibbotson Valiant spincast, or the Shakespeare wonder reel with star drag! Both work great!  From  1960-1963.   :laugh:

Nah, he has always been known as the "BIG" guy to me.  But, I can relate to the crazy part.

Zebco was it for me in my younger days but I remember when my grandpa got 1 of the Shakespeares with the star drag that Reb was talking about when he retired from Hormel, man was that a nice unit. Not so sure it's not still out in the fish cleanin house :scratch:

Re: Who can relate??
Yup. Still have a 600 & the wife's 202 someplace. My Dad had both a 66 and a 33 like in the ad. The 66 was missing the eyelet on the front cover so it cut the line frequently. :huh:

Re: Who can relate??
Still have the never used 33's, and a couple of 202's laying around, in addition the that new one on the matched rod in the case. Two piece rod that breaks down and goes in a white vinyl zippered case. Didja know Zebco stands for the "Zero Hour Bomb Co., out of Tulsa? Brunswick took them over in the 70's, I think. Just didn't fudge 'em up as bad as the Harley's they took over when they were AMF/Brunswick. I used to repair a lot of 'em when I was doing reel repair. Usually the biggest prob was all the sand in 'em and lack of oiling.

Re: Who can relate??
Dad's 33 is mounted on an old GEP steel rod. Mom bought the rod for him as a surprise birthday present. My oldest brother told Dad when he grew up, he wanted a rod just like the one Mom was getting him for his birthday. Surprise!  :bonk:
