Title: Dam 550 Reel
Post by: nomdeplume57 on November 23, 2020, 07:17:11 AM

Just purchased a 550 off the Angling Market Place Auction ,well 2 DAM Reels .A 330 and a 550.
Had to cough up 35 bux for both including shipping .
How bad did I get took ???

The 550 has had the back side of the Foot modified for some reason and has about a half inch missing off it . Wondering if a housing would be available for it  as the rest of the Reel is Prisitne.

I would mount it to a good rod and see how it fits .
 You may be able to able to Heli-Arc some material back to it if necessary.
