Thank you Jack. Growing up My late father had two reels. Both Mitchell Garcia's. A 300, and a 408. I found a 300 a year or so ago, but need to get it to a repair shop for a going through and the anti-reverse fixed. This one needs a thorough cleaning as the gear grease is hard and away from the gears. I'm going to start collecting them one at a time if I have to. They are some very good reels if taken care of...
I have an old 304 I picked up a few years ago. They are well made reels
