Default Baitcasting reels-the attractive antique that reel companies won't admit to

" the reel handle actually spins when casted, there is no release button on
it- maximum casting range so far is 60 feet- that's about it"

My Dad used one and I always called it the knuckle buster AND he used a
braided type of line.
