Jim I still use three Lews and I always will love them. I have one that is over 20 years old and is noisy but still a darn good reel. The Browning Lews BBIN I have is junk, Browning did everything they could to ruin the Lews reel in my opinion. I've had to do more times three to that one then my old one and it's less than half it's age. It needs a pawl right now. Anyway I'll never bad mouth or give up on the speed spools.
