How things began

Forty Years ago i purchased my first Fishing Reel. I rember a shiny silver Daiwa. This reel made a hollow tickering needle like Sound at retrive. The tone was one of a kind.
But what type has it been? I didn't remember. The last time I got a view on it had been fifteen years ago at my cousins Garage up in the North. 

Nearly two years ago, when I started fishing with wagglers I needed to get a apropriate small reel. For the fist time for Years I had to deal with modern fixed reels. 4,7,12 Ball bearings wheres the need? These reels touched nothing in me like in reels in former times.

So I bought my first used Reel, a Daiwa 1000c. Still in search of my beloved Reel some other Modells blazed my way. Finaly I got it my old Reel its name- 2600D!
And now I could hear it again this rare and matchless Sound.

Whats on?

Why are there no Sites showing all our precious poppets, telling the true story?
I didn' t find very much after long search.
Indeed I do not own a substancial amound of Reels and I'm not a real collector. Furthermore I feel very satisfied using old reels for fishing let them do for what they are made.

What if they were damaged?

Why now after forty Years?
