I decided to hit one of our local long-unused fishing ponds yesterday. After 30 minutes of pulling up the usual jars of bait and spinners, I decided to drag my magnet underneath the dock in 8 feet of water. To my surprise, I pulled up rod and reel number 8 in just the last 60 days! It turned out to be a rare, 1980's vintage Shakespear 035 Series 2000 spin-caster, mated to a Fenwick Blackhawk 5'-3" graphite rod! After completely disassembling, cleaning and re-lubing the gears, it spins as smoothly as when it was new!
