I cant beleve it. No one knows that one. Well I,ll tell you all what it means to me.
This movie had a part in it that got me hooked, and was the first game reel that I ever brought.
They came in 4/0,s 6/0,s and so on to a 16/0.
and most of you old school blokes would of used them.
Grand marlin!
NO wasnt an everol. These reels were a star drag over head.
Kingtin! Not this time, but Quick thinking thou. ;D ;D ;D

is Penn to obvious to guess.
For some names out of left field #how about an Aussie made Capstan ! (theres a name the young-uns won't know). I don't think Seascape ever went that big or had a black plate. Or a company called schaffer or schauffer or something like the writing pen company name.
Find a picture of zane graey and i'd say it'd be the reel he was using.

Could it be an old Duel reel?
Loved JAWS, although I was too young to see it when it was released. Also love that it was LOOSELY based on a true story from the US.

Noelem you were spot on with all that you said, and I think it was 1979
when my dad took us all to the drive-in movies and it scared the living sh$t out of me.
I didnt go near the water for months after that, but that reel screeming
got into my blood and I just had to get one.
It was a 6/0 penn. and that little reel and I, saw many adventures.

Dr tunaman, i see you have steped through your own personal time portal once again ;D ;D ;D
And where to this time?? :o Good old Amity and the day of the Great White :o :o
A tip mate, when you catch him don't try and stick him in one of your empty wine bladders ;D ;D ;D
I can just see it!! Unexplained explosion :o Great hole appears in SE QLD, the tunaman boat in orbit ;D ;D
I wonder if this thread will end up on the test board?? ;D ;D ;D ;D
And another thing, i think i saw some crabs there, so seal up the crevice and run ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

Evrols comes form italy or spagetti reels we used to call them, and Ill think you will find that they are lever drag systems, I think they came out a few years before the gold Penn internationals came into the picture. The 50T or the 50TW are my favorates, but those little penn,s were what I cut my teeth on. Those were the days.
Grand marlin. Look on the side plate in the movie. I think finnor also had them with a marlin on them, but not sure.
