Getting ready for our vacation to Montana, I wanted to upgrade my trout gear. 
For me, this meant going "vintage", not "latest/greatest"  ;D
I picked up this sweet little Shakespeare 2052 on ebay for a steal.  It was already in nice shape so I just did a basic service.
These reels have a very basic, but bullet proof design.
Also love to see "Made in the USA"!

I'll be mounting it on this classic Sabre ultra light rod that I found.

Should be a sweet little UL setup!  :)
Going to spool it up next week and see if I can hook some BSP with it!
