bring good collector prices on ebay. last one i had brought over a hundred
bucks.

Guys,

I have a couple of Zebco Cardinal 4 reels that I have had since the 70's
and I really love them. I am looking for a new spinning reel to put on
an ultralight rod. I checked out new Cardinal 4 reels and sadly found
out that they are made in China now and not Sweden like my old favs.
Does anybody know when they quit making Cardinals in Sweden? The only
thing that I don't like about my Cardinals is they don't have an anti
reverse without clicking...

thanks for any responses
