1954 Pfluger Supreme

Post by racfish » Thu Jul 14, 2011 9:41 pm

I will take a picture of my reel and post it. I know its a 50's reel and it still works great. It has a Stainless Steel body.Its a wonderful old Baitcaster. It was my first steelhead BC reel I owned.I started using it even before my Mitchell 300. I even have the case.Mine is like the far left one with one mod on it.

When youre up to your rear end in alligators,its hard to remember that the initial plan was to drain the swamp.

Thats funy Rac, my family has all pretty much learned on the pfluegers as well. I dont own any old, but do have 4 newer pfluegers. My dad and uncle both have many old supremes still in their aresenal. They use them often still. Ive used a model that has no drag at all. Freespool all the way with it. If you let thumb pressure off youll be rewarded with backlash lol. Wonder how many people now days could hang with the old supremes.
More fish please!
