13 fishing baitcasting reel concept tx2 ratio: 8.3:1 MODUS – Element Fishing Tackle 13 Fishing Concept A2 Baitcast

1950's: The start of Garcia's Rod range The very earliest advertizing of the rods offered by Garcia was from Conolon and seen in the 1950, 1952, 1955 Sport's Afield and 1958 Field and Stream catalogs

This ensures a creamy smooth drag release even under extremely high pressure, high load, and high temperatures with little to no fading

This release could really stand on its own as a regular catalog release

I know of the existence of two models, one of which is in Japan and one in Sweden

This combo features a 7 ft MH baitcast rod paired with a speed spool reel, perfect for casting lures and retrieving fish quickly

If you are struggling to decipher your reel's date code, online fishing forums and dedicated Abu Garcia collector groups can be invaluable resources
