Chance is always powerful. Let your hook be always cast; in the pool where you least expect it, there will be a fish

You can upload vidoe from a digital camera to Photobucket. It's a bit slow to load, but I did it to tease everyone back in the early Spring when I saw the first carp moving on the top.....

That reel is a magnificent achievement wm+ - we are lucky that you took the time to share the creation of it with us.

Wow, just found this thread and have to say "well done mate", its an absolute masterpiece wm+.
Engineering at its finest.

If your'e looking for a new project wm, I think you should make the the Lloyd Gladstone Gough trotting reel next, details are shown in the March 1964 Creel mag.
