Default Reels used on "worming" rod.

Hi all.

Back in the old days, worm was, still is, used as bait when fishing.
Also here in Switzerland and back home in Norway.
THe bait was just "jumped" out to the stream, floating down, waiting for the fish to take it. It is great fun.

But, what reel was used?
I am thinking of finding a old rod and reel and try the old way of fishing. It was these way that made me start fishing. Guess I am not the only one......
