Calcutta 200b and 400b... back in 03ish? I was 13 and my dad bought us matching setups. They are still hanging in the garage and I plan to fish them this year as I get back into it for the first time in 10+ years.

Happy to hear you will be getting back into fishing. I hope you catch plenty of fish

My first baitcast reel was a Daiwa Millionaire 5B that I got from my dad back in 1978.  I had it on a 6'0" pistol grip Daiwa rod that was limber as a noodle.  I don't have the reel any longer, but I still have the rod.
