A new HS Fishing Club in IL is in need of reels for their members. Here is the email I received from their sponsor:
"I am looking for a couple reels, the cheaper the better, for our local high school team. I had a couple of the kids out last night for practice and the stuff they had was junk from the early 80's and when I say junk I mean junk. The one kid is a lefty trying to throw righty and it was killing me to watch him so I thought I would get on here and see if anyone had anything they would like to sell, cheap. Just let me know what ya got and how much and I will see what I can do. Thanks for your help."
My response was that I would ask around to see if anyone has any reels laying around, I told him I had one.
His response:
"Ernie, I am located in Sandwich, IL and we are helping with practices and coaching the Sandwich High School team. I live in a private community that has its own private lake so a couple of us try to get them out at least once a week in the fall and spring for practice so they get the feel of fishing from a boat. We also try to do tournaments here on the lake with a kid and an adult to help them get the feel of tournament fishing and making decisions on the water. Most of these kids are just learning to bass fish and their coach (God bless him) really isn't a bass fisherman but loves the idea of getting the kids involved in the outdoors so he started the club and we try to do as much as possible to help. Thanks for any help. Kevin"
