My first bait caster

[Raul]

Don´t have an actual picture since it found it´s way into the trash many years ago, but the inner net is awsom !, seek and you´ll find:

In all it´s glory, Silstar Starlite Pro

Man, you really had to be a pro to feather that sucker´s spool, it was much more temperamental than a princess and equally touchy, I´m a real macho and this sob could make me cry when it backlashed. Now you see why I´m so good with baitcasters, TDZ Type R "touchy" ? HA !

I remember those reels although I never owned one. My first low profile baitcaster was a Shimano Bantam 100. The little silver reels.

Lot better looking than my first baitcast....an Ambassadeur 5001C, but bet mine cast a lot easier than yours. 

My TD-Z 103HL Type R isn't touchy.  Must be the wrong model Type R.
