so my grand father's husband passe away last week and while the whole fam damily was in town, my uncle from up in Minneapolis gave me a reel. he would not say where he got it, other than "from a friend" and told me to put use to it...
its a willow reel the model seems to be a "Maple Burl Inlay" (site here: http://willowreels.com/maple_burl.html ). damn thing's purdy and fancy, though i'm not sure what to do with it, so damn nice that i would rather frame it than fish it...
any body have one or have any feed back on these reels? not sure if i'm gonna keep it or try to sell it to fund more bamboo working stuff. i personally would rather have something i could not fear dropping on rocks and damaging/scratching it.
i'll post some pics for you all to see, it really is beautiful.
