Calcutta 400: Does the great Calcutta need an explanation? This one is three years old, used maybe 8 or 10 times a year. It has been regularly serviced and has not been used since it's last service. Picture shows extra handle which is not available. Reel being sold comes with live bait handle only.
Newell 229-F: Old style "Blackie" Newell. I've been told it is somewhat of a collector's item. In decent shape. Works good - feels like all the other Newell's I've tried.
Shimano Curado 200BSF: Awesome low-profile bass casting reel. super Free spool, VBS Braking System, 5 Ball Bearings, instant anti-reverse. A couple of years old but not used very often (maybe a dozen times a year). In great shape. Sells for $150 new.
Quantum 600ti: Great freshwater or light saltwater low-profile bass casting reel. In great shape. I used it quite a bit fishing inshore saltwater for calico and halibut before I got my Calcutta 250.
Quantum EX500CX: Great freshwater low-profile bass casting reel. In great shape except for the lever to switch from regular to flipping mode is missing. It is possible to still turn the knob but not as easy as it was with the lever. If you don't care about flipping mode then you'll never miss it. Great reel at a good price if you are new to bait-casting and want something to learn with and not spend a lot of money.

Bryan,
I sent you an e-mail back but haven't gotten a response yet. If you are going to be at the tournament on Saturday just bring the $$ and I'll have the Curado.
Thanks, Pete
