I actually own an old school abu garcia from the late 70's that still works like new. Made in sweeden. Even has magnetic cast control. The problem is size and weight not fitting the hand like modern baitcasters. I've had two wrist operations and still have nueropathy in both hands. I rare'ly use spinning reels for the same reason.
