Seamaster red knob spinning reel prototype. Seamaster prototype spinning reel made by Captain Bob McChristian. This reel was found in a Box while moving the Seamaster shop. All the prototype reels I have sold for 10,000 or more. This is the bottom price I would be willing to sell this for. What a great piece of fishing history to add to a collection.

Highly sought after Red knobs. Functional. Ultra rare. Comes uncleaned dirt and grime is free sold as is. This reel is a must have for serious collectors. Contact me with any questions.
