Default StrikeRight Reel

Hi
I've just been given 2 of these reels. One is boxed and on the box it says "Aduraflo 3 5/8"

Can anybody tell me anything about them?
Cheers
Bill

Looks like a centrepin rather than a flyreel - someone who knows will be along in a bit.

Sorry. Yes, they are centrepins.

Hi Bill1,

Do a Google on the name and make. I turned up a bit this morning (before I started work).

Thanks dogbloke.
I thought that somebody might be interested in these reels - apparently not

I've never used a centrepin but rather fancy the idea. Guess I'll do them up and try a bit of long -trotting on the Mersey.

Hi,
yes,as advised already they are centrepins.Not really of any note i'm afraid.I had one donkey's years ago,not much use for trotting but a good general workhorse ,used it a lot on stillwaters.
