Shakespeare Star 1908 vintage bait casting fishing reel how to service 

I've got a couple of those old knuckle busters, a South Bend No.55 Oreno and a Shakespeare No.1960 Criterion. They're fun to take out now and then. Both are great for float fishing with the bait clickers on them. Find a shade tree near the water, cast, set it in a rod holder with the bait clicker on, sit in chair, pop open a beer and wait for the bobber to go under.

Thanks for the reel history lesson dennis

nice little reel

Well Dennis you struck a chord in my heart, I love the old Knucklebusters , I hope the owner will take it fishing and catch a Whopper !

How would you even cast it
