Johnson Reel Collectors Assn. (J.R.C.A.) since 10/10/14

Thanks Chuck for this and the other papers you posted, I've posted all of mine at this time so glad to get yours. Maybe someday every reel Al has set up on this site will have a copy posted.

Nope, still have it. You didn't buy that one for $299.00 do you?

My recent new in the box purchase.

Fiskar I
Just bought this, appears unused.

I have a 80 sidewinder 6lb test, Centennial 120 6lb test & a 710A 8lb test, all cleaned, lubed, mounted, just waiting for the Bluegill spawn to begin. I'll keep a couple century 100B's in the tackle box as back-up.

Here's a link at Fishing Talks about that.

Hi my name is Dennis Oliver, 58 years old from Evansville, In. I just discovered this site the other day. I've been searching the web for a Johnson fan site for several months & I am very happy to have finally found you. Growing up Johnson Century's were the only spinning reels my dad and grandfather used, so that was my 1st reel. I used those old Century's up into early adulthood, not even sure what happened to them. Later in life after a period of non-fishing I decided to start again, naturally I went to the store a bought a Century, but it was nothing like those old one's I grew up using. I ended up using Zebco's for years, then early this spring I saw an old Century 100A at a yard sale. I bought it and cleaned it up, tried it out and wished I had another one. Then I made the mistake of looking for one on eBay. I now have more Johnson's than I can use and have become somewhat of a collector. These are the only reels that I fish with now, I'm also using old cork-handled rods and an old metal tackle box. Today I enjoy fishing more than ever, and look forward to learning everything about the old Johnson's and their history.

Thanks I hope this site stays active

Dennis
