Shimano AX2000 fishing reel with the "Quickfire II" release. I've owned this spinning reel the longest of any I currently own. It has a higher gear ratio than the Zebco's (5.2:1 -vs- 3.2:1), and a right handed handle which I particularly like. Not pictured is the six foot Abu Garcia "Harold Ensley" signature series fiberglass spinning rod that goes with it. Best bass fishing rig I've ever owned.
