What Reel Has Been With You The Longest?

I have a Shakespeare reel with one ball bearing that I have that came on my ugly stick which I got when I was 11. I'm 18 now. It still works lol

I have an old red Abu 5000 passed down from my dad. It was my first baitcaster and I still use it today.

I've got a Bantam Curado from... When were they released? 2000'ish? Yeah, it's been that long. Still works like a charm.

Is it the orange one?  Had one of the those a long time ago.

It's not really a bass fishing reel but an old penn that my grandpa gave me when I was a little kid like 6 or 7 years ago!

Probably one of the green Johnson Century 100A spincast reels. It belonged to my Dad and I can remember using it in the late 60's.

I've got an 1st gen Accurist that was my 1st low profile baitcaster, the most expensive reel I owned at the time and was my 2nd baitcaster.  It's parked on BPS Graphite Series kicking around somewhere.
