Gotta love baitcasters!!
the top row here have all been used and some get used frequently.

My main reel however is a late 50's vintage Abu 5000 with the freewheeling spool, these tend to get set up differently than a traditional "knuckle duster" direct drive!

I also wrap my arbors, so the slippery line does not spin, some of my Pfluegars have a cork spacer arbor you can out on for light mono, they work pretty danged well.
