We had some very good guesses, Most of the old folks that have seen it , told me it was a trot line reel?  One old gentleman told me it was a surveyors reel. I have to lean to it being a trot line reel. If anyone has ever put out a trot line it is very handy to wind it up on something. I used to use chunks of Styrofoam.

On the last trivia I said I would put up some skunk essence for this one. It's available if you want it river rat boy. If you want something different from the web site let me know. PM me or email me with your address.

Don't get me wrong. I think you made a good choice. I think I offered anything you you wanted from the website if you didn't want the skunk essence. Just wanted everyone to know what you got and made a joke about the postman having to carry it if it busted in the box. I bought it to use for coyote, but just lost my lease and don't know where I'm going now.

What are you going to use for?

    Why am I so late getting to this site! That's a trotline reel. Use to see them all the time, when I was a kid.

 I've been out of touch for a couple of days but i think that reel was actually from the military and was used for detonation wire and cord.

    That could have been the case. Military surplus was used for everything, when I was a kid. Prior to the 1968 Gun Control laws, you could go in a G I Surplus and buy Enfields and Mausers for $19.95, out of a barrel.

You could be right I was always told that it was used on trot lines but who knows?
