THE CENTRE PIN thread - everything I wanted to know but was too afraid to ask

[nicepix]

I haven't yet no. I'll stick with my Abu 501 for the time being. Other financial priorities at the moment.

Can't you set an apprentice a task of making one? Many a centrepin and Scarborough reel has been made in NCB and British Steel workshops on the quiet. I understand that Flight' has one that was made in the Rolls Royce factory.

I may well have mentioned this before if I have put it down to dementia ....However I am speaking and demonstrating angling with a centerpin reel at the Midlands game fair on the 20th and 21st of September.
For anyone that is interested i will happily spend time teaching the wallis cast amongst some of the other skills feel free to come and ask I don't bite!
Cheers
Alan
