I give SAUERKRAUT two thumbs up for being on the cutting edge for 1975. That silver Daiwa 7000C he has on the yellow Lami was along with the gold series, the first of the next generation of skirted spool spinning reels coming along. Everyone was watching and following Daiwa at the time, and Penn followed with their line of skirted spool reels soon after. That reel he has there had a great silky smooth drag and was built like a tank. It was so cool and modern looking at the time that a lot of the Penn greenie traditionalists shied away from its non-traditional looks.
