Going off at a small tangent here
I picked up a wee Ryobi Superlight Magnesium 355 MG reel at a market this morning.
Fly fishing is not and will never be a thing for me, so if you know of anyone starting out on such a journey, let me know and I will get it to a worthy owner.
Please note: I think it could do with a little tlc but there really cant be much to go wrong with such a simple mechanism
