Lew Childre Speed Spool BB1 LE
well I got the reel today. this reel has never seen line ! new condtion. I called a place here in st.louis that has been in tackle business since 1959 and talked to their tech. and he remembers them well, but couldn't recall the line capacity he was guessing 110 yard of 10 lb. test. I tlaked to him for awhile and he was kinda down on the new speed spools he called them "glorified" zebcos; a shadow of what the old speed spools were. I recall a FLW event from 1997 where a guy one an event using one. the anouncer was saying he never saw a guy use such an old reel to win an event. the pro that won said he bought 2 of them years ago when he was a kid and had a hard time learning how to use it then tossed them in a draw. he brought them back out and got the technique down. the reel has a V spool.
