They make good rod tip breakers if not careful. I have quite a few of them, all packed away somewhere in storage. I was buying them at flea markets when I could see silk lines on them hoping to salvage the line. If the line was salvageable, it was worth more than the reel. Tony

I need the best, but it looks like a $50 Shakespeare/Pfleuger is about as good as it gets. Anyone know of any better manufactured auto- reels? Will the SP hold up?
