I'm looking for a lefty baitcasting reel for my oldest brother who had a stroke a few years back. He's got very limited use from his right side & can only reel lefty. He's not looking to spend no more then $40 if there's anything out there he's living on limited income because of his handicap. I need the reel ASAP because were going up to RI on our yearly Fluke trip a week from today. Just respond,PM me or text me at 917 371 5267.
Thanks
Doug

Thanks Larry but a buddy of mine who lives close by loaned me one of his reels.
My brother only Fishes once or twice a year with me it's a family trip up to RI. I'm in the future going to look into getting him something at the flea markets or eBay.

Hi Doug,

I have s Gold Shimano Corsair 300 I believe, maybe 200 that I bought years ago and only used a few times. I will not have access to it for a couple of weeks to confirm. LMK if you are interested and we can work something out.

Sounds good Bill just let me know when you get it & we will work something out. No rush I got a loaner for this trip. I should have gotten him something at the fisherman's flea markets over the winter.
