Default Reels "Made In U.S.A."

I am looking for some new bass fishing gear. In my little attempt to

keep
Jobs in America I will attempt to buy equipment "Made in U.S.A.". Like

to
get bait casting reels.

I sent an email to Pflueger / Shakesphere asking if they had any models
which were produced here.

Answer from them was, "NO all our reels are made in China".

What reels are U.S. manufactured?


Van Staal makes spinning and fly reels in Tulsa Oklahoma. They're U.S.
made, but start around $500 for an ultralight reel if I remember correctly.
